Check out the Teraflex 2.5" Performance Budget Boost.
You'll clear 35s and have some money leftover for other mods.

Or add a $1000 and go with the full control arm kit from Tera Flex and always be happy, that's what I did.

Define "Best"

A vague post giving no idea what your goals are isn't the best start...



Have you opened the FAQ's yet? Lots of good info to start basing some decisions on. Note the areas that give recommendations on which components you will want for various lift heights. And driveshaft recommendations. And caster recommendations. And gearing recommendations.

Spend a little time reading, then come back and ask the new questions you come up with.

Definitely need to know what you want to do with your rig to know what would be best.. Lots of options for Jeeps, especially the JK model!

I can speak for ROCK KRAWLER. 3.5" great lift for on and off road. Get good shocks though.

X2. This lift is complete with the best components from several companies. everything you need and nothing you don't. Call and talk to David and get his opinion on which lift is right for you.
