I have a 2 door soft top 3.6 auto. still running 33". What lift do I want? 2" to 2.5", Mopar, AEV, Metalcloak's, Rough Country and many more. I don't want to break the bank, not doing major rock crawling. Do I need Track Bars, Steering stabilizer. What is the 2 door group using?

If you aren't into heavy duty rock crawling you are set up quite well for off-roading so run your JL on some trails to determine its capabilities. 33" tires on a 2 door is a good combo.

If you are not going to be rock crawling, you can fit 35s underneath the JL without lifting.

But if you want a little bit of height, this AEV kit is hard to beat for the price

AEV N0721050AA 2in Spacer Suspension System for 18-21 Jeep Wrangler JL

Looking for some added clearance to fit bigger tires that will help you hit the trails harder in your Jeep Wrangler JL? AEV’s 2-Inch Spacer Suspension System will provide clearance for 35” tires on the Sport and Sahara models or 37” tires on the Rubicon model with aftermarket wheels.

One of my friends has a 2 door rubicon and she added wheels and 35,s with no lift. Her Jeep looks good and she whèels it hard.
If you wanted some height I would agree with that AEV lift. If you are spending more money than that then you will need to do more research to determine what you really want your Jeep to do. A complete lift with springs and shocks will have positive and negative results on both off road and on road handling.

I have the Rancho 2" lift with the adjustable shocks. Mild to moderate wheeling on 33's works well on our 2 door JK.

I went with the Dynatrac 2" lift with Fox shocks. Recommended by a mechanic on the other forum that installs 3 to 4 lifts a day. I added the lower control arms from the Mopar 2" lift per his recommendation. I also youtubed a lot of reviews for a lift for light off road while keeping the stock feel on pavement.

This lift was the top 1 and 2 in this video. Right away it gave me 2" of lift, but with the stock 33 tires it felt a little wobbly on the highway. After switching to 37 tires it rides like a dream on the road and I say as good as factory. I test drove a lot of lifted jeeps before I bought mine and they were all squirrelly on pavement at high speeds. So far I am so happy with this lift even at speeds of 80+mph. Easy enough to do myself with another hand, a couple of jacks and stands.
On the Quadratech site they say it's not for the 2.0 but clearly it is fine, as the mechanic I spoke with has done hundreds of them and mine is awesome. Hope that helps.

After the Dynatrac 2" lift and the 37" tires I have 4 inches of lift now.
