Default New and starting with mods

Hello, bought a 2012 jk Rubicon. 4-doors.

Came, when i bought it, with ARB bumpers, MT rims with 275/70/17, OME 2.5" coils and Rancho RS9000 XL with remote control. and some othr stuff.

Looking around to change some stuff to improve ride quality ans was thinking of this:

-metalcloak lower control arms
-metalcloak adjustable rear and front trackbars
-3.5" coil springs dual rate from metalcloak

This in mind, i also want to go to 35" tires and some tube fenders, but still do not know which ones.

Do i need some more stuff to order like:
-bumpstops
-brake lines
-changement to exhaust
-whatever other situation i can run into

The coils 3.5", they go with my Rancho rs900 springs?

What part number on the shocks? It will be located near the bottom of the shock. I can let you know if it will work with a 3.5" coil.
In regards to exhaust mods, most likely look to our RS720003 exhaust pipe or a new drive shaft $.

You are going to need new shocks. That P/N is the front and is for up to 2".
3-3.5ISH" P/N is RS999329XL (front) RS999330XL (rear)
