Possible problems with 3.5 in lift 2 door jk
So i have a 2door 2010 jk manual, i plan on doing 35s as well as upgrading my gear ratio, possibly lockers upgraded front axle etc.
I am reading more and more that you cant lift over 3.0 inches on the 2 door without having issues with your drive shaft break lines etc.
I plan on going with a pretty nice set up, but i dont want to have to drop big bucks on everything to make this lift work, i need detailed answers on any possible issues i could run into.
down below i will list product details and link to the Tera Flex lift i plan on going with.
Lift kit includes:
Suspension Lift
Front and rear Fox shocks
Front and rear dual rate coil springs
robust adjustable front track bar
bump stop spacers
solid front sway bar disconnects
brawny flipped drag link

Thats not a teraflex lift you have in the link, It is a JKS. It's also a 3.5" lift that will likely put you over 4" in actual lift. It at least includes high steer. Brake lines and front and rear driveshafts would be recommend with that kit along with a full set of control arms to get your caster and wheel base back and set your rear pinion angle. A HD drag link, front and rear HD track bars, and HD tie rod are nice to have for on road driving with big fat tires but it is something you can add later.
This kit has every thing you need and you should be looking at kits that have these same components for a proper lift that gives you all the adjustment you may need. In real life if you jeep is not loaded down with armor, bumpers, and a heavy winch you will see 3"+ of lift from it.

If you're just going to 35s I'd stick with a well spec'd 2.5" lift on a 2 door. That's going to get you over 3" with most kits. All you're likely ever going to need. Dirtman has you pointed at exactly what I'm refering to.
