I get a lot of members asking for details on my lift, so I thought it appropriate to provide the information on it here, along with some gratuitous photos of course
Parts used in my 2.5" lift (3.5" with a 1.25" body lift) (under $600 for everything listed):
Rancho shocks tend to run long and 0-2" shocks fit much better than the 2-3" shocks I had originally installed.
1) Rancho RS5000X Shocks 0-2" (2 Front) — RS55128
2) Rancho RS5000X Shocks 0-2" (2 Rear) — RS55240
3) Pro Comp 2" Springs (Front) — EXP55297 (ebay sometimes has lower spring prices)
4) Pro Comp 2" Springs (Rear) — EXP55298 (ebay sometimes has lower spring prices)
5) OME Rear Track Bar Reloaction Bracket — ARB FKWTJ02
6) Rokmen 1/2" Aluminum Body Lift
7) Daystar.75" Spacers — KJ09108BK (note: only used above front springs for leveling)
8) Rock Krawler Bump Stop Extensions (Front and Rear) --RKSRK05611 (note: Comes with 6 1" extensions. Glue or bolt 1 to each spring bucket at the bottom of the front springs; I used this RTV Adhesive and it worked great (edit: 2 1/2 years and still holding strong). Then bolt 1 above each bump stop cup on rear springs)
I didn't need to lower the TC and had ZERO vibrations (YMMV). I also didn't need to make any drive line or control arm modifications.
note: You can easily make this lift over 3" by replacing the above 1/2" body lift with a 1.25" body lift and a JKS motor mount lift. This would be enough for 33s.
1) Savvy Aluminum 1.25" Body Lift
2) JKS 1" Motor Mount Spacer Lift
Here are top on/off photos to get a perspective of it with 265/75R16 tires (basically 32's):
