Which BDS lift components do I need?
So i just ordered some 35'' trail grapplers on 17'' addicts and now i need to get the lift kit straightened out. The 2'' BDS kit seems to fit my needs and price range, but i dont know which of the extra components to buy, like the front and rear track bars and etc. My jeep is a DD with alot of highway miles, with some light to moderate wheeling on the weekends.

I had to add the front track bar with my BDS kit to keep things in line. 35k miles and it looks like my front drive shaft doesn't have much life left either. I have the 3in with fox2.0 shocks. Pretty happy with it for the price

i have rock krawler 2.5 which ended up around 3" and it required both exhaust spacer and aftermarket front DS. With the aftermarket DS alone, the shaft would sit ever so slightly on the exhaust pipe so I just did both.
