Any other parts a necessity or a good choice to compliment or make the lift better or more reliable?
PS. Nice place here.

I'm currently running the AEV 2.5 XT lift on my 2 door, love it.
P.S. Welcome!

Will be a weekend shooting rig rather than a hardcore wheeling and off road rock crawler. My vehicle for the last 8 years went down much closer to the ground not up so going to be a interesting transition to get used to body roll again.

Lieutenant is 100% on the money. Lots of people on here have rubbished the factory lift, if you want to waste your time, money, damage your spine or get divorced then go ahead and install the factory lift.
My advice is to install a lift once and do it right, it will ultimately cost you more if start experimenting.
Others have already experimented, why not take advantage of what they have learned?
