Upgrading 2.5 BB to 3.5 lift
What's up guys,
I'm upgrading my 2010 jku sahara from a 2.5 BB. I was wondering what other parts are recommended to install my new metal cloak 3.5 coils I just ordered. I currently have Bilstein shocks, the teraflex bump stops that comes with the BB, brake extenders, RK front track bar. I live in Miami so no rock crawling, only mud.
Thanks

I guess the obvious answer would be to compare what you have against the parts that you see in the pics of their 3.5" lifts.
If you want to correct the caster, add arms or brackets. Are the shocks long enough for the new coils? Are your bumpstops tall enough to keep the tires off the flares and the shocks and new coils from over-compressing? Are your links long enough to keep the swaybars level? Brakelines/brackets long enough to keep from ripping off the frame when flexed?
