35-37's now, what's your budget?
Wheels/tires cost...
Lift cost.. Budget boost? Or full suspension?
Search budget boost, composited to suspension lifts, and see how that matches your, gold cache you can spend.

He sent me a link for a BDS I believe . it was a 6 inch long arm for somewhere just under 3000. I am a noob to so I'm not sure if thay are reputable but there vid they had posted was pretty freakin impressive .

I'd say like 35's 37's max..:thinking:.

Back when I still had my TJ, I ran a Rubicon Express 3.5" lift and got it to clear 35's with the addition of a 1" body lift. If you can afford it, a 4" long arm kit would be the way to go. I eventually installed a Full Traction 4" long arm kit which is a true 4 link front end design and ran 35's no problem and it was awesome. Before I sold it, I ran 6" coils and they cleared 37's great. It's what I would recommend if you can afford it.

Most good TJ long arm kits cost around $3,000. Not including the driveshaft, SYE and Shocks. If do go with RE, get the 4 link front and rear 3 link.

Do you want to be tall? Or short.

I personally run RC 2.5 progressives, bilsteins shocks, rokmen CAs on 35s going on 37s. It's a short lift. I net .5-1" over stock.

Note* I ran 35s on the same lift minus the MCs also. ImageUploadedByWAYALIFE1358529410.400260.jpg ImageUploadedByWAYALIFE1358529420.904533.jpg ImageUploadedByWAYALIFE1358529561.195153.jpg ImageUploadedByWAYALIFE1358529567.515474.jpg

I do have the RC 2.5 already on. My jeep

Perfect. Unless you're wanting to go taller I'd advise you keep it. Change out shocks, CAs, steering and you'll be more than capable with that coil. Don't blow money on lifts or lift kits. A friend of mine did. Trying to prevent you from doing the same lol
