IMO teraflex is reliable and strong stuff, i myself just ordered the TF 2.5" lift yesterday to fit my 35's which hopefully will be here soon

I currently have a Teraflex Leveling Kit, JKU springs, and Xenon narrow flat fenders. I did this so that I can keep a low center of gravity, but still have room for the bigger tires.

As of right now, I'm still running 33.5" tires (got them before I installed my flats), but will be upgrading as soon as my wallet (and wife) give the approval! And as you can see, there is still plenty of room for flex and upgrade in tire size. I also don't have to worry about changing any of the steering/drivetrain components due to too much lift.

I run the 2.5 coil lift with the unlimited springs and the terraflex shocks. I love it. Running 35s and no rubbing on full flex with sway bars disconnected. Great flex, great ride. Couldn't be happier. I am about to put aftermarket fenders and possibly a small spacer or very small body lift and run 37s. Waiting for gears and lockers and strengthen the front axel first though. That gets done first week in June. Go with the teraflex. U will be glad u did.

I voted other. More information is needed for the intended usage of your Jeep. A $2400 lift might be waaaaaaaay more than you'll need. Then again, it might not be enough.

Without knowing exactly what you are trying touse the jeep for, I would say the OME LT from Northridge is about the most complete answer. I got one and love it for wheeling and on road DD duties!
