Had the Rocksports on my JK (w/ 3.5 MC lift) before switching over to Bilsteins. The Rocksports were too soft in my opinion. Several folks here in KC are running MC and the Fox shocks as well.

Finally got my set: 2.5" Game Changer Rocksport. They arrive tomorrow, but I'll wait for the steering bits before install.
Can't wait. Hope it's as good as all that.

I am pretty torn on weather I will go with the 2.5” or 3.5” gamechanger. Leaning towards the 3.5” as I will use 37’s. If the 2.5” will clear the 37’s without a ton of bumpstop, that would be the preferred route. I Offroad quite a bit and don’t want to limit the articulation.

I just ordered the 2.5" and have 35s and am curious how you like your setup? Are you happy with the 35s or do you wish you had 37s? I am toying with the idea of selling my 35s and picking up a set of 37s...

I considered both but I'm happy with the fender clearance that I get with the 35's on the trail plus the 4.10 gear ratio works well with the 35's on the street. I will be metal cloaking the undercarriage to help with the lower profile.

Thank you for the info! 35s with the 2.5" seem to require less additional work/mods (added bump stops, regear, high clearance fenders, etc.). I will wheel with it for a season and see how it goes. I have added the diff skids but should also consider the full cloaked protection as well.
Did you notice any sag with your steel front bumper? I have the factory steel bumper with a 10K winch and have noticed a lot sag on the factory rubicon suspension and hope to not have the same issue on the 2.5" GC.

Both kits use the same shocks, you'll have the same travel with either kit and need the same bump stops to clear whatever tire you choose.

I ended up going 3.5” and installed it over thanksgiving weekend. It was a pretty cold week in Denver and the garage was freezing. Glad to get it on though.
Obviously the down travel is the same. Agree bump stop is determined by tire size, or other item like top mount drag links. Ultimately I wanted that extra inch of up travel before getting into the bumpstop,

No, but what you can expect is 10% off and free shipping sales at about every holiday. (Even did Columbus Day)
