Default New Springs or Lift kit?

I have a 2dr Wrangler X. I want to run 34's with a 2"-2.5" lift. Keeping price in mind, is it better to buy a pair of used Rubicon springs and shocks (or used springs and new shocks) or just to go with the TerraFlex 2.5" kit? I want to do moderate rock crawling so I'm not sure that the flex in the BB will be enough for me. Any suggestions?

Get the teraflex 2.5 spring lift, and if u wanna go higher get the kit for a 4dr. I have a 4dr and got the 4dr kit and netted 3" of lift front and rear. With 140lbs of winch and front bumper on.

Rubi springs work great but they are unlikely to give 2.5" of lift. Go shopping for a spring lift kit.
