Greetings,
yes I know another dumb ass with a question about lifts... why cant this idiot just use the search function... blah blah all the other standard responses.

I have been searching and reading a lot and was hoping to get some actual input about my thoughts below.

Jeep background:
2021 Overland all stock for now. I love the Mojave and eventually will get one, when i win the lottery but for now building the Overland is my best opion.
I dont want to go over 35s, as it is my daily, wife and kids still have to be able to get in easily (her words). mild offroading trails around here.

I had a few thoughts about lift ideas and would love input please.

i am leaning toward one of the kits, likely icon or rock krawler.

the thoughts ive been working on;

- mojave springs and falcon shocks rubi flares, that would give it the stance and look I like of the mojave...theoretically
im coming from TJs and JKs where the rubi take off was a definate upgrade over non rubis. reading here it seems hit and miss with people seeing a difference.

- mopar 2" lift, ive read its a good idea to add adj track bars and control arms.

- teraflex 2.5" kit

- icon 2.5" kit

- rock krawler 3" kit

What’s the question?
input/thoughts on the lift ideas.
would the stock mojave springs and falcon shocks work? would that be a waste?
would icon or RK be a better to just start with?
are there parts that im forgetting about with mopar lift idea?

I think the Mojave will lift over an inch but is that enough to level . I prefer to overcorrect with either the R k or Rancho 1.5 " front springs and then if need add a small spacer in back if need to keep some rake . I believe their 1.5" will add 2" on a sport or overland model .
