Currently I am running 2" spacers on my 98 TJ. I have a set of 2-1/2" or 3-1/2" maybe even 3" Springs to put on. My question is, if I remove the spacers and just put the lift Springs on, will I need a new track bar or control arms?

At 2.5" you won't need a new track bar or control arms.

However, at 3" + you will definitely need a new track bar and control arms, no doubt about it.
 
Ok that's what I was thinking just wanted to be sure before I did it. I pulled all 4 Springs out of the junkyard for $15. Look almost brand new.

Not a bad deal at all!

If you want to keep the lift reasonable as far as cost goes, stay at 2.5" or under. Anything over that and it can start getting really expensive, really quick.
