Default Teraflex or other suggestions.

I am in the market to lift about 2.5" lift. The bb by teraflex and the 2.5" suspension are relatively close other than the coils in one and spacers in the other. Anyone have input on either one and also does it finish out level or would that be something I'd need to look into doing as well. Thanks in advance.

if you plan on adding an aftermarket bumper, winch, tire carrier, etc. in the future, do yourself a favor and get the coil lift. It will come out level with the stock bumpers on, but once you add everything to it, you will most likely need to add some coil spacers to make up for the sag.

I'm running the Teraflex 2.5 BB and my JK is level. I have stock bumpers though.

I'd say go TF coil over the BB. Plus Joe is the TF rep on here and his customer service is unparalled.

For the extra money, I feel you would get a better ride from the new coils, so go with the coil lift, even if you have to use the shock extensions, you won't regret it. I have that very lift with a Superwinch on top of a RockHard shortie with extensions, it is heavy and I did loose some height, TF recommended a 1 inch spacer to make up for it.
