Default Pro-comp VS Teraflex

I'm trying to decide on a 2.5 to 3 inch lift for my 2007 Unlimited with 6 speed. From all I have read it sounds like both of the kits will do a nice job. I will use the jeep as daily driver and road use much more than offroad.
I'm going with 35X12.5X17 tires.
If there is another brand that I should be looking at please advise, trying not to make costly mistakes and do it right the first time...........

Teraflex is my vote. You will have no regrets. The procomp runs stiff.

That's all you need to clear them. You also will need a procal and spare tire mount.

Ome lt kit from northridge with hd springs.

If running stock wheels you'll need 1.5 inch spacers. I recommend either spidertrax or Fred spacers.
Fred's are found at w w w. Wheelspacer.com.

Great guy and a solid product.

you would need a pro comp 4" lift to clear 35's and be able to articulate.. my 4" lift gave 3.5" lift. I think you can achieve that with a tera 2.5" lift
Also my front springs have sagged to the point where I had to add a 1" spacer before I put the bumper and winch on.

Go Teraflex

Pro comp 4" kit on 35's (before the front springs sagged)

I'm in the same boat, I went with the 2.5 Teraflex from Dave at Northridge 4x4. I got the front trackbar and control arms for adjustability. My only concern is that it's high enough for my taste, which can easily be fixed with a 1 inch spacer if needed.
It will be on 35 inch goodyear MTR's and AEV pintlers.

Go teraflex, I started with a procomp and this week I'm finally changing the last track bar from my procomp lift to teraflex. Wish I started with teraflex!
