Default Teraflex or RK 5.5

Just got my taxes back and have about a 3k budget on a long arm lift. I currently have a 3 inch fabtech spacer lift, I plan on running 37s immediately and 39 or 40s in a few years. I have been looking at the Teraflex 4.0 and RK 5.5. I'm not sure if the 5.5 will be an overkill on my 2 door or not? And I'm afraid the RK 3.5 wouldn't much of an upgrade as far as height goes to what I have now? I don't do anything too crazy, just some trail rides, steep hills and the beach but eventually I do what to run 40s eventually when I get this jeep off the road everyday, so I only want to buy a LA once. So basically what lift do you think is better for my situation? Or is there another lift out there that could work? I'm leaning towards Teraflex bc I've heard it gets close to 5 inches of lift on a 2 door

Sir

On your 2 Door with Flattie Fenders, the 3.5" Long Arm Systems will be awesome. Really. 5.5" would be a little too tall. If you are going to stick with stock fenders, then you would need to jump to the 5.5" system.

Good luck with your decision.
