Default Lift? Do I need anything else?

I am going to lift my 08 4DR JK next weekend, so I wanted to ask if there is anything I am leaving out that I might possibly need, to get the Jeep rolling... I bought the following items...

TF 2.5" coil lift
TF LCA's - Thx for the great deal HAOLE
I have already installed a 1" BL
17" ProComp 7089 Black w/ ProComp Ext MT 33's

Don't want to get half way through install and realize I need something else... Thx for advise

Absolutely sir. You should be good to go. 33's might look a little small under the 2.5" lift and body lift.. Good Luck with your build.

I thought I remembered seeing something about an adjustable front track bar, it might help with centering the body?

Yep basic is correct, I have that same lift with TF front LCAS and I also got a JKS adjustable front trackbar to center the axle. Although you do not NEED them, for me this extra stuff my jeep 100% more driveable on the road. Get your lift on and see how you like it before getting anything else and go from there. Good luck! Oh and 35s fit great!

Yes, I plan on getting 35's eventually. Just got a great package deal on the wheels & 33's, so I will run them until then... I will most likely get an adjustable front track bar, next. Should I stay with TF? I see alot of set-ups on here with JKS... any thoughts?

You can not go wrong with either TF or JKS, I went with the JKS based on price and great stuff I hear about them. The TF monster front trackbar is beefy as hell though, but nearly 100$ more.

Makes "CENTS" if you can save 100 bucks and not sacrifice quality, I am all for it... Thx

May want to consider some quick disconnects if you don't already have them.
