Hey Guys,

This is what I am thinking of getting for my 2012 JKU Rubicon.

1. Rock Krawler 2.5 X Factor Lift
2. Fox 2.0 w/Res
3. Teraflex 2.5 Speed Bump Kit

I will be running 35's with Flat Fenders.

Is anyone running a kit like this? Would love to see pics.

As much as speed bumps main purpose is high speed stuff, on the rocks once you ride in a rig with speed bumps you won't go back, it's top notch
Edit
I would take a look at rrd shocks over the fox's

They are fluted so they cool easier
They are aluminum with a hard annodized coating
They won't rust, I've had 4 bilstiens rust on the Jk
4 ranchos on my f250 are rusting and my truck isn't a year old
And Rk is super easy to work with for tuning, they just sent me a set of black 2 5/8 with remote resi's tuned for my set up on my yj, reverse triangulated 4 link on the front and leafs in the back.
I'm currently running fox 16 inch 2.0 with resi on my yj, I haven't been pleased and I know that's probably the tuning as soon as I have the dough I'm going to put some rrd's up there

They are aluminum as well

Sounds like a good setup to me and I would take the advice posted above and at least look at the RRDs in comparison. Rock Krawler's direct fit remote res shocks are new to the market and should be available soon.

I had the 2.5" X-Factor on my 08 JK with Fox IFPs and 37s with flat flares and recently picked up a 2012 JK that will be running the 2.5" X-Factor along with the RRD remote res shocks. I'm currently waiting on parts.

The Speed Bumps are, as Nick stated, a good choice as well. They have their place in either realm of use.

I don't have any pictures handy of a JKU with 35s on it with this system but I'll see what I can dig up for you.

The "2.5 X-Factor" hasn't always been a marketed system but we've been putting them on Jeeps for over a year now by swapping in 2.5 coils with the 3.5" X-Factor. It became such a common request that RK gave the setup it's own part number. :)

Welcome to JKO!

I'm running with pretty close to what you want. I have an '07 JKU with RK's 2.5 MaxTravel, RRD's with remote reservoirs, TeraFlex SpeedBumps, 35x12.5R18 Nitto Trail Grapplers and Poison Spyder flat fenders. There aren't many rock gardens in North Florida, but a lot of wooded trails and power line roads. This set up works extremely well for hitting the trails at speed.

Yes, I am running the 2.5 inch Speedbumps kit. It is the regular Speedbumps in the front and an extended urethane looking bump pad in the rear. It works much better than the standard bumps.

There is 8.5 inches in front and 9 inches in back.
