Default 3 to 3.5 in lift HELP?????

What is the best 3 to 3.5 inch lift I can get to avoid all and any complications I may have with any issue.. I have a 2011 sarhara 2 door automatic.. I ordered 35in Nitto Mud Grapplers on 18x9in Incubis rims.. Let me know cause the lift I ordered(3.5in skyjacker standard) seems that there will be alot of issues with it once installed.. I also dont want to have to changeout driveshafts or anything like that. Any recommendations???

Get the AEV premium lift (I think they call it the dual sport SC, but it's the more expensive one). Worth every penney and your truck will drive like it's not even lifted.

You're in kabul with a new JK? Joe or Hadji?

NM, I read your profile.

Its been said several times before.... anything over 2.5 on a 2dr be ready to buy a new rear shaft. being you dont want new shafts dont put the lift on. You can get away with 35s on a budget boost......

I would stick around 2.5" to avoid the driveshaft issues
