I have a Rancho 4" Sport Lift with RS9000XL adjustable shocks on my 2010 Unlimited Sahara. It is awesome. 3" or 4" is a good size for increasing the break-over angle on the longer wheel base of an Unlimited. 
If you are open to other options besides TF...
With a 2 door I would go with their 2" Lift with RS9000XL shocks (RS66109BR9). It's designed for full travel with 33" tires but will work with 35's. (37s with flat fenders.)
On the 2 door a 2" lift will allow you to maintain stock steering and exhaust components as well as stock drive shafts.

Enjoy!

i just installed the teraflex 2.5 coil lift (1351002) with new skyjacker shocks, cost me about 625 + installation. there is a similar lift from teraflex that allows you to use your existing shocks and that would be the 1352002, however i heard from teraflex the one i got was actually made with better parts. i have no problems so far! my smitty bilt src front bumper cost me 380 from amazon. the src lines are usually cheaper than the xrc from smittybilt.
also if your trying to save some $$ i would definitely buy from discounttiredirect.com
total with my new 35s (stock were 31") and 2.5" lift i got 4.5"s more of ground clearance
the truck is freakin HUGE in person

I will have a 2" Rubicon Express spacer lift with shock extenders and a set of Rubi shocks off my 13" Rubi with only like 2500 miles on them that I am upgrading to the RK2.5 lift this weekend if you are interested. If you look at my pic, I am currently running that set up with 35's and it works fine no rubbing or any issues, and I have bumpers and winch and full size spare.
