I haven't had any complaints with my 2" BB I ran for 6 months with stock 32" tires and then moved up to 33's.
Stock 32's

here is a pic of my 2.5" BB and 35's... 1" BL (shredX... this is not level of course, but the front and rear gap with the new springs are almost identical. I have a PJ 1/4" steel front and ramsey REP8500 winch.
call David at Northridge and ask for the part number for the OME HD springs. Tell him that you need to fix the rake caused by the winch and bumper. He will tell you everything you need to know. I will see if i can snap a pic tonight post here.

Thanks everyone for responding. I appreciate it. Im a completely new to the jeep world and just looking around on what I should do with a budget in mind. I definitely think the BB is the way to go for me personally!!

Here's mine with the Teraflex 2 1/2" BB... These pics were prior to adding the 35's I have on it now. I haven't had any issues with the BB while offroad. I did bust one of the shock extensions... but it's cause I hit a hole going faster than I should have... my fault... not the parts. Other than that, the boost has handled everything I've thrown at it.
This one is after I added the 35's.

Tera BB is awesome even with stock springs like I have. I'm proud to say I did the Rubicon, Hell's Revenge, Moab Rim, Golden Spike including Double Whammy, Poison Spyder and Metal Masher with this set-up. For 99% of people that is about as tough as it gets.
Here it is on the Rubicon Trail last year.

TF 2.5 BB with stock sahara wheels and tires. Great for light to moderate wheeling. I have a set of Rubi 17" wheels that I'm going to mount some 35s on, but have to do things as the budget allows.

Well, I can't recommend the Full Traction 2" BB. My rear spacers came out of the pocket during mild wheeling in Ohio and were ruined before I was under the Jeep and noticed it. The "lip" that holds the spring in place was crushed and no longer retained it in the correct position.
However, for me its a good excuse to just upgrade to a nice coil lift and just be done with it. Just need to save a little more money and be sure I pick the one that best suits my needs.
