I ran the Teraflex BB. It gets the job done. All parts are quality. I ended up getting longer teraflex shocks since my factory ones were going bad and didn't perform well offroad. And I recently swapped to teraflex coils because the factory ones were too soft and sagged with the weight of winch/bumper. I have just the spacers for sale if your interested! Here's a pic of the jeep with the teraflex bb

I would lean towards the Teraflex kit bc it includes bump stops and new sway links... But I know a guy who ran 35s with the rc BB no problems and the price is hard to beat... I would probably just go rc to save money and if you rub when off road get some bumpstops.

It's a BB. I say save your money and go Rough Country. Reasonable price and a great look for your ride.

Take your extra money and go on a date with your girlfriend. That's what I'd do if I were still young. ;-)

I had the RC 2.5 spacer + shocks lift for a little while and hated it. Rode like dog crap. Don't get it.

I had the TF w shock extensions on my 11. I went with the Zone 3" lift on my 12. I would recommend to get the lift in the above link, and skip the BB. Its only $440.

Loaded down hitting the Rockies. The lift performed well and I'm satisfied.

The TF was a good kit, and served it purpose though. I could recommend it if that's the direction you want to go.
