I have a 2021 Willy’s Sport. I want to go with the Mopar 2” lift kit.
1. I will add a new winch and bumpers front/back
2. Biggest tires I will run will be 35’s
3. Track bars front and rear? Will I need to add them to the build?
4. Spacers?? Front needed? Winch and bumper added weight. If so what size will I need?
5. I will not be rock crawling!

The shift on the 2 inch mopar lift isnt that bad to require track bars, you can lift and add them later if your not happy with the slight axle shift. If your adding a front bumper and winch your going to get some front end sag, the kit is also set up to keep that factory rake so i would look into adding a spacer in the front. I have read ppl adding spacers on the mopar lift and having spring bow issues and other that have done it and had no issues. Depending on your budget you might want to get a kit that has 3.5 inch springs in the front and 2 in the back to help with the added weight.

Can you suggest a kit? Wouls a 3/4 spacer front and back fix the sag I would get from the winch and bumper?

A 3/4” spacer would fix any sag in the front.

Skyjacker makes a kit with 3.5 inch springs and 2 inch springs in the rear, not sure about skyjacker as i have no personally used them. Clayton offroad stuff seems really durable and might not sag as bad with the heavy accessories. Plus you could do the spacer afterwards if and when you get settling.

UPDATE! I’m so glad that here I can get answers for a noob Jeep owner! Got off the phone with the off road shop here. Metal Cloak Game Changer 3.5 is going in mid Feb. total cost all in will be about 4k! Next is can I get 35’s that will fit the 17x7.5 in stock rims????

Yes, plenty of ppl running 35's on stock rims, gotta watch at full turn as you might rub a little bit. Wheel spacers are an option, ive head both good and bad things about running them. I had a set on my JK for a few months before i got aftermarket rims and i would get some death wobble on some back roads.
