In need of a good Lift kit
I am sporting a 2012 JK sport with no suspension at all. I am looking to use some of my money that i have been putting aside for a lift kit. I know this is truly a preference question in some ways but I wanted to know what would be a good 2"-3.5" lift kit? Quality but also something that doesn't break the bank. If I get the lift kit that someone suggests I will post pictures of it being worked on!

What size tires are you planning?
What do you plan on doing with your JK? 4-6 inches will mean axle driveshafts,etc.
Some of the more popular brands are Teraflex , Rock Crawler ,AEV ,BDS , EVO, and about a dozed others

Now that i did some quick research, id rather stick with the 2"-3.5" range. 4"+ would be a crazy amount of money and work i would need to do.

A leveling kit or budget boost (BB) will suit you just fine. I would suggest the Teraflex but most BB are the basically same. Leveling kit is nice if you have a rake from the factory.

Best bet would be do some research, read the stickies at the top of the modified section, and then come back specific questions. No reason to lift a JK for 32" tires. Most come from factory with 32's
