I've heard/read great comments about the TF 2.5'' lift.
I want to get one for my 2012 JKU sport but I don't know wich one I should get.
Should I go with the 2.5'' coil lift with shock adapter since my jeep is fairly new and my shocks are fine or should I get the one with shocks?
OR a third option would be to go with the 2.5'' coil lift w/o shocks and get Bilstein 5100 shocks wich I heard/read great things about?

Thanks!

I went with the coils and shock adapters since my Jeep was new also. Figured I'd let my shocks explode before buying some new ones

Be forewarned unless tf changed the lift packages. The shock adapter package comes with frame side track bar mount. It's vulnerable to damaging the stock mount. I'd go for no shock or w/shocks and get the axle mount its much stronger and reinforces the stock mount. Everyone I've installed complained about the ride with extenders unless you have the rubicon shocks. Then your good.

Glad you threw in that last line...mine is a rubicon so I should be good to go. Thanks

I guess not super hardcore, but I am using a fallen tree to prop up another fallen tree! Couldn't get over so we went under.
PS - Not because the tree was too big, just because of the angle it was at.
