I think you may be better off with their Rubicon Express 2" lift as it comes with brake line brackets and bump stops for similar money and add the disconnects to that. The urban kit doesn't come with discos, it's an optional extra also.

Suspension on JKs are quite easy to work on. Watch this video to see if you can do it yourself. You will learn a lot and enjoy the experience, this will be valuable to you when you decide to upgrade down the track. Then you can get away with new springs and castor correction only.
Also any mechanic or suspension place in Perth will be able to fit any of these kits for you. DBOR have good after sales if you need help too. SBR is also good to deal with but if you want them to fit it, it's only fair you buy their products.

What are your plans for your JK? Do you just want to add bigger tyres or just lift for looks? Are your funds limited or have a budget?

OP has been asking about lifts on few threads already. dunno why not stick to one thread instead.
Anyway, the JK he has is a 2 door and he stated that there will be no serious offroad and he is on tight budget. All he want is a lift to fit bigger tires.
So, just about any spacer lift will do as long as he is ok with a factory ride.

One thing need to make sure before going for any lift thou, think about what tires you going to use. Otherwise you might end up with rubbing and not enough clearance for fender flares.

As for DBOR lift, while I do like things from DBOR, it might be a better idea for you to go to SBR instead since you don't really have much idea what you are after, you better get your stuffs from someone local.
