Jk Rubicon build down under
Ok guys and girls I have been a follower of the forum for quite a while and am not new to Jeeps. I have had 4 so far so am no first timer. I started with a TH built it up to 35s front and rear lockers and had that for 12 years then to have something a little more day to day friendly I bought a jk 2.8 CRD for day to day. As it does I decided to combine the two and bought a jku CRD (God bless Australia) I then came to a problem I wanted more and was at the.cross roads of weather I spend a hole bunch of money and re gear and lock up or but a good old Rubicon. We'll as the title suggests I bought a Rubicon. Unfortunately down here, although we do get a CRD sport or Sahara we do not get it offered in CRD.... Stupid jeep Australia. As they would sell shit loads.
Anyway I digress, my question is to run 35 inch tyres, with arb front and rear bar and stock flares what is the required lift, bump stop and other bits and pieces you would think I would need to achieve this. I know brake line extensions rear track bar bracket relocation bracket and front adjustable track bar. 3 inch springs and bump stops.... Any thing else you guys would recommend or idea's would be appreciated.

Has anyone got some good advise on trimming flares. The dealer have me a lift kit thrown in. Only thing it only netted just over an inch so I was thinking of cutting the flares. Also I put my arb bars from my 08 crd on it and was thinking of cutting them. Similar to the arb stubby bar the USA now gets and doing something similar with the rear bar so it doesn't look weird!
