Look on ORW. Everyone will give opinions on lifts, but if you call or write Gus you will get one of the better deals around. Plus ORW is local for you.
When it comes to shocks, choose Bilstein or FOX.

Lifts I would choose and not in order
TeraFlex
Full Traction
Trail Master
Rock Krawler
Just remember on some lifts on 4" you will need front track bar, possibly brake lines, driveshafts and upper/lower arms. Also need quick disconnects and longer rear sway bars. Some kits show everything you need some dont.
FYI- might say 4" lift but say Teraflex's 4" lift is actually 6" front 5" rear

Some of the 4" coils out there will give over 5" of actual lift, so are new driveshafts included in that 2k? Are you looking for brackets or adjustables? How big of a tire are you going to run, and have you considered a shorter lift with flats? Are axle upgrades included in the budget, or is the 2k just for the lift?
If you haven't done so already, open the FAQ's and look in the suspension section for a list of recommended components for this lift height. It will be good to use when comparing the kits.

Im doing the same research as you for a lift.. what is the best option with teraflex is I allready got 1.25 body lift and flat fender and 37" tire right now im runing rough country 4" lift and its too stiff .. what is the most complete kit I was looking to get another 4" lift but teraflex seem to get a little bit more so if I take a 3" that can be a got option for price and can get the best 3" kit insteed having a medium kit in 4"

Note; The 4” lift description refers to the minimum amount of lift on a Wrangler with 4 doors and all the options including a hard top. Allowance is also given to aftermarket items such as a winch and heavy duty bumpers. You may experience as much as 6 inches of front lift and 5 on the rear with a 2 door soft top X model
