Default [PIC REQ] TF 2.5" Coil w/ 1" Body Lift on 35's

So I'm about 95% sold on what I want!

I'm going for the TF 2.5" Coils with 35" KM2's.

My only other question right now is -- should I also add a RC 1.25" Body Lift?

Anyone have a pic of this combo, or similar, they'd be willing to share?

No DS issues w/ body lift. Maybe he wants it to sit higher? I have the same lift and think mine would look a little better an inch higher. Not everyone is a fan of LCOG look...

Just like you said: 2.5" Tera coils & RC 1.25" BL. This is before I put the rear bumper brackets on. 35s not on yet....

Cool! Thanks for the pictures! I really appreciate it. Your Jeeps are looking sweet!

I'm about 90/10 --- so this is my DD. I'm not really concerned with comfort, just want it to look badass both on the road and in the dirt. Not doing any extreme wheelin'.

At any rate, I'm debating between the 2.5" TF Coil or a 4" Pro Comp or 4" Rough Country.

I like the idea of a 4" lift, so I thought with the 2.5" and the BL would get me close. I don't really want to do any other mods besides re-gear and maybe the SuperChip. Which is why I'm leaning toward the 2.5" Coil.

I was reading, somewhere, though, that because my Jeep is manual, the RC 1.25" BL will give me issues of some sort (with tranny I think). Does anyone know if this is true? Any advice on this?

Of those lifts, I would go with the TF 2.5 coils for sure..its much more complete than those other kits and mine is great. The RC BL comes with an adapter for a stick so youll be good with that.

That looks great, thats the setup I am planning on going with only with my 4dr! did you have add any coil spacers to level out the front? I noticed my TF lift had a rake after i lifted it so now with a winch and front bumper its much more obvious.
