Default New to the community, Lift advise please.

Ok, this is all new to me so please bare with me. Think im set on the Rock Krawler 2.5 Max travel system with Bilstein 5100 gas shocks. What else will i need to complete the lift and what will be the first stock things that will begin to break down and need replacing. I live in the South Louisiana, so there are no huge obstacles to climb. With that being said i think 35's will be plenty for my off-roading adventures with that lift. Any suggestions and or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

I have the TF 2.5 coil lift that comes with the f+r track bar brackets, shocks, coils, sway bar links, brake line extensions, steering stabilizer. Only add ons are the AEV pro cal and the exhaust spacer.

Sir

That is one of our most popular systems! It does everything well in our opinion. The only thing you would want to add down the road would be proper height bump stops to match the shock-tire/wheel and fender combination you are running to maximize the amount of travel and off-road ability! Let us know if you have any questions. Our website is very detailed regarding setups under each system. We sell our bump stops seperately! If you have any questions, please let us know. Give us a shout, we certainly like to talk Jeep.
