I'd recommend getting a Teraflex lift. Short arm will be fine for you.
JK 3” Suspension System w/Full FlexArm System with shocks | TeraFlex Suspensions
That's MSRP pricing, you can find a reseller that will sell it cheaper. I got lucky, my 6inch long arm kit went up $516 in price but I was able to find a reseller who would give me the original price. Teraflex is an awesome company, great customer service. I lost part of my sway bar disconnect, they sent me the replacement for free, inc shipping. Awesome company.

The nice thing about TF kits, is everything is upgradeable, so if you want to step up to a Long Arm in the future, you can do so.

You could go super cheap and do a 2 inch lift - spacer or coil, some shocks, and pick up some flat fenders. That setup will have you running 35's. Some guys have fit 37's under that, but I wouldn't recommend that since you are new to wheeling and only have a D30 up front.

The RE 3.5 kit will be a good option, I know someone that has it and runs 33's happily.
Rubicon Express 3.5" Super-Flex™ Suspension System for 07-09 Jeep® Wrangler Unlimited JK 4 Door - Quadratec

Full Traction makes good stuff too, but I've heard their customer service sucks, which iiisss important. Stuff breaks, you want to get parts replaced.
Full Traction 3" Ultimate Lift Kits for 07-09 Jeep® Wrangler Unlimited JK 4 Door - Quadratec
and finally..
AEV purchased Nth degree, builder of some super awesome high end products. They put out a 3.5 and 4.5 inch kit
AEV NTH02341AA - AEV / Nth Degree 3.5" Premium Suspension System with Bilstein Shocks for 07-09 Jeep® Wrangler Unlimited JK 4 Door with 3.8L Engine - Quadratec

You should really join up on jkowners.com there are some canadian guys on there that probably could help you find a reseller in country.
Everyone is knowledgeable too, it's an offshoot of pirate4x4.com. Stay away from jk-forum.com as that place is run purely for sponsorship money. You cannot mention a product that doesn't sponsor the site. I have some Poly performance parts and I could get banned for mentioning them as part of my build.

Back to lift kits, stay away from Skyjacker, Rancho, Fabtech, those type of companies.

Imp:

I suggest the "super cheap 2 inch spacer lift with some some shocks" route. This would be in your price range - Teraflex JK Wrangler 2.5” Performance Budget Boost w/adapters. Ask them for recommended shocks, don't use the stock shocks with shock spacers / relocators though. That will get the belly up higher and you could upgrade to 33" tall tires later.

It will be easy to remove later if your company wants it stock for trade-in. Just save the stock shocks and swaybar links somewhere.


I don't have a Facebook account, so I can't view your pics.

In that case I back the info that LoPo put in his post. I personnally like the Terraflex kits, with Rubicon kits a close 2nd.

That looks like a fun run you did

As far as two weeks from now The month of July is hell month. This week and the holiday weekend I am putting up a VMware system with multiple virtual servers on it. I am migrating to new Exchange servers on it as well, so I have to migrate about 250 mailboxes. Then the next two weeks are preparing and then meeting with auditors (Sarbanes-Oxley law for publically traded companies), so both weeks will be long hours with no time to get away. So it looks like the next available time to do anything personal will be July 25th or August. I have every Friday in August as a vacation day

Last week we camped at a OHV park in Tennessee, too damned hot. So we drove up to Silver Lake and spent the rest of the week playing on the dunes. Lots of relaxing fun

250?? Exchange 2007? I moved just over 2,100 mbxs in one day during my migration. You can do that in less than 3hrs.
Powershell FTW.

That'd be a nice option LoPo, but unfortunately our existing Exch server crashes whenever we put a load on it. Haven't gotten a good backup in a couple weeks. So I'll be migrating one mailbox at a time . . .
