Default Teraflex 2.5 coil lift kit vs Rock Krawler 2.5 Stock lift kit

I'm having trouble deciding between these two kits. I know I can't go wrong with either kit. Going on a 2012 JKU Sahara. Daily driver. Any help is appreciated. Looking for pros and cons on each.
Take it off road approx twice a month nothing crazy.

The Rock Krawler is at least 1" higher.


Both are nice.

Both brands are great. I ran the TF kit on my '08 and now am running the RK kit on my '12. Like what others mentioned, the RK may net a little higher probably due to the front springs being progressive vs the TF springs.

Any reason you decided to go with RK on the 12 after doing TF on the 08?

The fact that the front springs were progressive, so if I added a heavy aftermarket front bumper I wouldn't lose too much height. Plus I heard so many good things about RK so I thought I'd give them a try this time around.

I have TF springs now. The RK springs I had prev rode better. They are progressive and preferred for long travel. Much better spring IMO. I will be going back to progressive or dual rate in the near future.
