Default 2'' battle: Full Traction vs. Black Diamond

I've been looking alot at lifts lately, and have pretty much made my mind up on either 2'' or 2.5''. I'm getting a good deal on some 305/70r/17's (34'') to pair up with it.

My question is, from looking at the various 2'' lift kits, they aren't all the same. I believe FT is 2'' in the front, but 1 3/4'' in the rear. Superlift (Black Diamond) is 2'' front and rear right? My problem is that i want the full 2'' of lift because my jk doesn't have much rake. How essential is the track bar relocation bracket and stuff that comes with the FT kit? Will the FT give me rubbing in the rear because its not a full 2''?

If i do choose to go with the 2.5'', it'll definately be the Teraflex with shock extentensions. But from what i've seen, 34'' tires should be ok with a 2''.
