Default 2.5" Budget Boost with OE Shock Adapters

If I go with the 2.5" Budget Boost with OE Shock Adapters on my 2 door Rubicon, are there any other adjustments I am going to have to make after installing ie. re adjusting headlight beams, alignment etc... ??? I am planning on keeping the stock rims and tires on for a while...

Me and my Dad both did ours and never adjusted anything afterwards. I have about 10,000kms on mine since then and no issues it rides just great and no one flashes their lights at me so they must be fine.

I put the Rough Country BB with shock extensions on mine. The only problem I had was due to the fact that I have a fab fours front bumper and 9500 UT winch. This made the front end sag a bit. Due to this, my front shocks were bottoming out. I ended up getting Rough Country to cut me a break on new shocks. I attached a pic of my jeep with the 2.5 and 33's.
