I installed a BDS 2” suspension leveling kit about three months ago. Long story short, added a winch and bumper and the front is sagging a little. I received a teraflex leveling kit and will be adding the 1” spacer this weekend to bring the front end back up to where I would like it to be. I’m guessing from stock, with the BDS springs and 1” spacer it will be a total of 2.5” total lift. At what point do I need adjustable control arms? I already installed the synergy sector shaft brace and JKS adjustable track bar. Don’t really want to lose the ride comfort I have now. I’m running nitto 315/70/17s on black rhino wheels.

Usually it is recommended to run control arms but its not really needed if the truck is only lifted Assumed that the truck is lifted 2 inches with the additional weight of the bumper and winch but thanks to the fad you really wont have to worry since the driveshaft wont spin and wont cause vibrations,and in my Jk(Seen in my profile pic) i got a 2.5" spacer lift since its my daily and even with that i dont get no vibrations due to pinion angles,hope i helped a little bit

That does help, thanks for the reply. Since this is my daily I’m not really taking it off road. Just want to make sure I’m doing things properly.

Yeah man you should be fine since its a daily and especially with the fad you should be fine,but id still recommend buying some cheap control arms that are adjustable and have some enduro joints but honestly id recommend just buying front lowers and rear uppers and you should be perfectly fine man :D
