Second vote for https://www.northridge4x4.com/part/...x-2-5in-sport-st2-suspension-system-no-shocks

I have this on mine with Fox shocks. Drives better than factory. Especially on the highway. Geometry is good. If I decide to add more later I can still make changes upon this core.
You could do better than that. Get the "base" 2.5" kit, add Mopar LCAs for about $100 and

And for less than $1,500 all in have a nice intermediate suspension kit that rides pretty good while saving about $400.

Why does this question really need to be asked in 2024? There are Jeepers of all types: Off roaders, beach cruisers, garage queens, mall crawlers, etc, etc.

Why do so many have to go straight to criticism of someone's intent instead of Just. Answering. The. GD. Question.
Some of us have lifted vehicles multiple times for various different goals, and the right lift can make or break enjoyment. And some people think they need a huge lift to clear tires because someone with no experience told them so. In this case, the stated primary goal was to clear tires for on-road use, which doesn’t need a lift. Asking questions gets us closer to the best recommendation, which should ultimately save time and frustration, and if money is saved by doing it right the first time, then you have cash left over to buy more stupid $hit.

I put these in so I didn’t have to mess with regearing transmission or steering adjustments. Nice smooth ride! You will have to invest in a spring coil compression tool.

Define smooth ride?
3" lift on a leveling kit would completely alter the suspension geometry. The vehicle body would be off center to the passenger side, and the coil spring may pop out on a sharp turn. Hitting a small rock may feel like hitting the curb

Buy some Xtreme recon pull off parts and call it a day. Plenty of people remove this lift to install their own. You should be able to buy what you need for a few hundred dollars.

Don't you all know, that whole bit about doing things right is soooo overrated and safety schmafety. It's like seat belts, pfft, who needs em those things are for wimps a real man would never wear a seat belt so why spend more then 75 bucks for a 3in lift. ;)

I am looking to add a 2.5 to 3-inch lift kit to my 2024 4-Door Willys. My primary goal is to comfortably fit 35 to 37-inch tires while maintaining a smooth ride, as I do not plan to use the vehicle for trail riding.

I’ve noticed a significant price variance in lift kits, even among those from the same manufacturers — with some priced between $500 and $800, while others are in the thousands. I’m unsure which option would be best for my needs and would appreciate any recommendations or guidance you can offer.
Lots of options out there, I'd look here too:

Any worry with power being that my Willys is the 4 cylinder?
