3.5" lift?
I would like to put 3.5 lift on my 2012. What all would people recommend? Looked at RE lift but what do I have to do to driveshaft? If anything. Also I should be ok w 3.73 gear ratio w 35x12.5x17 tires shouldn't I? No extreme wheelin. Daily driver. Hardest trail we've done is Red Cone I would say.

Well I put a 3.5" Rock Krawler lift on my 2011 and I like it. I run 35's as well on a daily driver with 4.10's but I have the 3.8. I think you should be fine with the 3.6 and 3.73 gears. Not gonna win many drag races but it's fine for me.

We put the Rock Krawler 2.5" X Factor Plus lift on our 2011 JK.
Take a look at our Facebook Page for pictures and video's.
We didn't need to do anything with our drive shaft at all, although it is slightly different exhaust lay out for the 2011 compared to the 2012.
I highly recommend RK lifts. Can't beat the abuse proof warranty. We have been beating on the lift since it was installed and so far we haven't had any issues. All of the arms are very strong.
