I install everything on my jeep, they might have bad customer service. I never really had to call them or deal with any issues. I did like the ride of the springs when my jeep was pretty just lifted.

Lol yeah! Ok so I feel better about a 3.5" lift clearing good now its just which exact RK or other suggestion lift to pick that will for the most part do well on the road now that I don't need the control arm brackets Also since I'm posting nudes and all here is a picture of my baby. I'm actually putting 2.5 re springs on this weekend to pick it up a bit more.

Looks nice, with the fenders gutted. Looks like it already has a lift. Just noticed your front bumper, nice choice.Here is a few pictures

The RK ultimate adventure is fairly new. It has a couple of nice changes. One: it has maintenance free control arms that still give 70 degrees misalignment. Two: it comes with side specific coil isolators front and rear ( passengers side 1/2” higher ) this used to be only in the rear.
I’m running the XFactor No Limits for over two years now, and it’s been an awesome kit on and off road. I’ve paired it with some Fox 2.5s for great on road ride and some pretty sweet flex......some pics in here.

I've got the 3.5" Metalcloak Gamechanger and currently have 38x13.5 Milestar Patagonias wrapped around 17x9 wheels with -12mm offset and 4.53" of backspace.
I see that you've already chopped all fenders and removed the rear fender to bumper filler panels. You'll have to do some rear pinch seam trimming to fully stuff the rear tires, or lose some up travel with an added amount of bump stop spacers. Heresba couple of pics taken last summer. I've made some other adjustments and upgrades to increase articulation, but I still haven't trimmed my pinch seam because I also have to artfully modify the AAL rear liners and mounting plates.
These were taken at 35psi Street pressure.
Here's a couple of more recent pics of sitting at normal ride height.
I've been building it up for crawling obstacles and being able to carry some speed down the wash boarded trails in between. It also serves as my daily driver and currently has about 53k miles on the clock. It drives considerably better than it did stock, and I never had any complaints when it was new.
You might consider not rolling the teraflex shocks over to the next setup. Both Rock Krawler and Metalcloak offer shocks that they specifically designed and tuned to their springs. If you want a different shock, a set from Accutune that is custom tuned to your specific Jeeps setup can be just as good. A properly matched set of shocks and springs will provide the best drive ability both on and off road.

The lift height doesn’t determine if you need to replace the driveshaft, it’s the extended length of the shocks. If you’re going with shocks that are 28” or longer , I would replace the ds. However a lot has to do with how you wheel it as well.
There’s no need for extended brake lines on the Rubi , you just need to change the way they’re bracketed.
