The RE 3.5 + 1"BL + spacer should be enough to run 35s. There are some things to think about though. This is just opinion and not meant to be a put down but I hate to see people that dont know anything about their vehicle (ie: your 01 TJ has coils on all four corners and you will need new shocks) get in over their head. Its going to cost you a bundle to run 35s and if you dont do it right, you wont be happy with the results and you will be selling the half a$$ed Jeep in a few months. To run 35s and be happy with them takes alot more than just making room for them. For that much lift you will probably need a slip yoke eliminator and CV rear driveshaft. You may get by with the stock driveshaft if you do a motor mount lift. You will have to get rid of the D35 rear axle or get real good at changing broken axle shafts. Youll have to regear the front and rear axles, even if you do regear, 4.88 is the lowest you can go and the 4 cyl. will still be a dog with 35s. Again, this is opinion based on several years of being in the off-roading and rockcrawling community. I think 33s are the practical limit of a 4 cyl Wrangler without doing major drivetrain modifications. No doubt the 35s would look cool sitting in the driveway but the minute you hit the road, or the trail, it will suck.
