Please recommend 2.5 lift

[JacquesR.za]

hello all,

So much on the topic here, please excuse my laziness to read through all.

I'm looking for recommendations to lift my 2021 JLR 3.6 2-door.
Presently on stock configuration.

Usage off road would be the irregular trail, but unlikely any overlanding.
Tyres on 35's would be good for me eventually as well.

What would you recommend as a good solution here?
I know the sky is the limit on where to go with this, but me looking for a cost effective (not cheap and inferior) solution.

TiA,
Jacques

Epic off road did a whole series last year installing a Metal CLoak 2.5 inch lift on his 2 door. He later relaced that with a AEV system. watch both videos to get some pros and cons. Video is on You tube.

A 2.5-inch spring lift is ideal for your goals. It clears 35s, keeps a low center of gravity, and fits your off-road needs without needing extensive control arm upgrades.
Check out the Mopar 2-Inch Lift Kit or look into kits from AEV and TeraFlex. They offer excellent ride quality without breaking the bank

I'd suggest TeraFlex

I would wait to lift until you actually are getting 35's otherwise it will look goofy . this is several years old but gives some good info.

A consideration for your location should likely be considered as well. Old Man Emu is based in Australia, and from my experience has a much better presence of vendors outside of the USA. They offer HD and SD springs for lifts, and the SD would probably be well suited to your 2 door.

OME like Jeepingib said is probably your best bet for support. However you can run 35s on a stock suspension Rubicon with some fender modifications. Replace the liners, split the fenders (or replace them), and a turn signal replacement youre good to go.

At that point put on a better set of shocks and youll be able to go just about anywhere you want to.

I just did Clayton 2.5 overland kit.

I’m not supposed to use the T word here or I’ll be accused of being a Toyota Bro, but I had an OME lift on a tacoma and it was good quality for the price.

As far as what YouTubers recommend. Pay attention to whether or not they’re getting free shit before you put a lot of trust in their recommendations,

Jeep got rid of their contract with Fox and went with Bielstein,,, I went with the Mopar 2.5 inch and 5160’s from the factory and currently running 37’s and it was probably half the price of going to a shop by having the dealership do it, and I kept my warranty,,, you gotta be careful about adding components to your jeep if it’s still under warranty and you wanna keep it that way, if you don’t wanna go Mopar, just make sure the shop is a certified Mopar installer and not just a generic 4x4 Shop,,, be careful what you install because if you ever have to make a warranty claim, they’ll pick it apart and try and find every excuse not to honor your warranty!
Good luck with whatever you choose!

Highly recommend. 10/10. No ragrets.

AEV dual sport RT 2.5"

Side note: A Rubicon can run full size 35's with minimal rubbing with no suspension alterations. I ran 35 inch Kenda Klever KR629 MT2's on my jlur for more than a year and wheeled it extensively, primarily rock crawling.

35x11.5r17 are a great option. I ran those on my stock mojave no rub on or offroad.

Rough Country 2.5" for budget-friendly reliability, or Metalcloak if you want to spend a bit more for better performance. You'll love the look and capability on those occasional trails.

Teraflex ST2 kit works for your description. Capable off-road and very well mannered on.
