Default rubi shocks or teraflex shocks?

Im getting my lift in the next 2 weeks. Im going with a teraflex BB. My question is, should i use the rubi shocks with extentions, or get the longer teraflex shocks? Eventually I will upgrade to the teraflex 2.5" coil lift so i guess i will need to get the shocks then. Just trying to spend no mre then i need to right now. Thanks

I have the RC Bud. boost. and just used the extensions and my ride stayed perfect like stock. very happy with it. i have never had a teraflex lift so i dont know if it is improved with one. but i do know i am happy with my stock rubi shocks. The wife was even impressed with how well the ride was after the lift was installed. thats gotta count for something.

I ran the TF BB with extensions for a couple of months and it rode well. However, i just upgraded to the TF 2.5 Coil w/ shocks and could not be any happier Rides like a champ! If you are going to eventually upgrade to coils go with the TF Shocks now and don't look back!

Thanks for the input. I'm getting the 2.5" teraflex BB with shocks, JKS discos, wheels w/4.5" backspacing, and 35" tires. My next question is, do I need anything else? I only off road about once a month. The jeep is my DD.
