dont know if a 2.5 skyjacker lift comes w/control arms, but heimed or Johnny jointed arms would help. a 2.5 wont entail you much flex to begin w/but a tj has good flex stock and for the most, flex is over rated. until you start steeping up to long arms and at least a 4.5 inch lift, there isnt to much tweaking to do esp w/short arms. concentrate on traction now.. maybe get a flat skid, a body lift and a motor mount lift. that should help.. good luck.

an adj. track bar with a heim joint or jonny joint at one end,heim joint/jonnyjoint control arms,longer brake lines, longer shocks...basicly flex your Jeep to its max and then go around loooking for what limits the flex.

Like said above, flex is over-rated most the time.

w/2.5 inches of lift on a tj he wont need to extend the brake lines. if you do decide to though go w/ 1995 jeep yj lines. they are inexpensive and they are 5 inches longer than a tj's..

yes I have noticed on YJ's how they need longer brake lines simply because they mounted the brake line to the top of frame... where on my TJ its on the bottom allowing me for more flex.
