Default 2.5 BB Advice

Thinking about giving my 2012 stock JKU a 2.5 BB. Need to know which one is best for me and economical. It's my everyday vehicle and will be doing some mild offroading considering I live in LA. Ive been looking at the TeraFlex BB's but I dont know which I need. The one with shock adapters, the one with shocks, or the ones without shocks. What is best for an everyday vehicle and would also like to fix the JK's rake. Thanks

Most spacers lifts are the same. The cost will depend on the components included. The Tera kit comes with
- spacers
-bumpstop extensions
- rear swaybar links (stock rear can be used in the front)
- rear brake line bracket
-rear frame Tb drop bracket
- shocks or shock extensions

I'm running the rc 2.5 series II lift. No complaints.

A 2.5" lift is a bit much for stock shocks. If you like the ride from your current shocks, go with the brackets. If you want new shocks, get the one with shocks. If you want new shocks, but want a different brand, then get the kit without and buy them separately.


Nothing wrong with running the brackets, they'll work fine.
