Hello everyone. I am Hoss, new to this forum and the JL but not new to Jeeps. This is our third Wrangler, first was a Silver 09 2 door sport X, then we had a Gecko 2012 Unlimited Sahara. Last week we were entertaining the idea of trading in my wife's 2016 Escalade ESV and came across a dealership that had a White 2018 Unlimited Sahara soft top with only 214 miles on it and were able to pick it up for $31k. We couldn't turn it down! So now the fun begins again, researching and building!!!
We have 2 young kids, Sean 5 and Tinsley 1, so we don't do any off road or rock crawling trips right now, I guess you could say we are building a Mall crawler. My wife's 09 had a 3" lift and 33's, she loved the stance and the ride so we are trying to do the same with this one. We are looking at a 2.5" lift but could go to a 3.5" but I have concerns with the ride quality, driveshaft and caster issues.
So here is where I am, I have scoured the forum countless hours for a couple weeks now and still cant decide weather we would be fine with a 2.5" Rough Country spacer lift with either LCA or correction brackets to save some money and get the lift we want since we will be 100% on road. What about a 3.5" Rough Country Control arm drop suspension, but do I need to replace the driveshaft since we will never flex it out? OR should I go with a spring lift like the Rubicon Express or Teraflex, would it even be necessary since we will never go off road?
Thank you all for being awesome and helping me make a decision. We have missed being a part of this awesome community and so glad we are back home where we belong!
