Newbie help

[zeropilot]

Hey guys, Jeep modding newb here. I need some help with lift kits so here's the run down.

I have a 2018 JLU sahara with nothing done so far. I'm picking up some rubicon take off rims/ KO2s tomorrow. I've seen them work fine with no mods thanks to lurking here before i signed up so no issues there.

I plan on adding both the front and rear Smittybilt SRC Gen 2 bumpers after the new year.

I have no plans for a winch yet and yeah, I know it might look funny with that hole just sitting empty.

So what lifts would you recommend? The largest tires I might go to is 35".

I'm leaning towards Skyjacker's https://www.quadratec.com/p/skyjack...m-m95-monotube-shocks-jeep-wrangler-jl-4-door

or the 2-2.5" version (when it becomes available)

I have a 2.5" on my Sport and 35s and it's perfect in my opinion. Note some lifts like the Mopar lift may net you a bit more than advertised

If you are thinking about 35" tires on a Sahara, absolutely go with the 2.5". I have sold and installed many of these kits and all my customers have been very happy. Sure there are better kits out there, but this one is hard to beat for the money. I do strongly recommend that you add a front track bar and the fixed lower control arm option. This will ensure that axle centering and caster correction is taken care and will give you the best possible ride. I have all of this in stock, if you are interested.
