You will definitely get over 2.5" with that lift. I mostly see highway and beach and it handles so well is crazy. I did add the drop brackets which made it a lot better. Recently I added the fox ats stabilizer and now it out handles my old camaros with 34" tires!

I'm running a fabtek 3 with the dirt logic shocks. The ride is amazing for a lifted jeep. Handles so good on Mtn curves vehicle stability tries to cone on. Got 3.5" on stock bumpersClick image for larger version
