[QUOTE="DirtDauber, post: 449469, member: 23773"] I've been running a 2.5" lift on my daily driver/moderate wheeling Jeep for about 5 years now. Dont know the details of the kit you're installing or what it comes with but here are my suggestions/opinion.. There is no need to upgrade any of the steering unless you just want some added strength (tie rod mostly, because it is most likely to hit something). You'll benefit from lower front control arms to correct caster, so the Jeep doesn't feel "flighty" or "darty" on road. I run JKS fixed length, which are slightly longer than stock. You could also go adjustable of course, that will adjust to a longer length. Longer front and rear sway bar endlinks. Adjustable trac bar in front and either an adjustable rear or correction bracket. Thats about it. the 3.5" range and above is where you run into other problems and things to correct. [/QUOTE]
