lift help!!!
I have 2013 JKU Rubi w 2.5" Rubicon express lift. I'm upgrading to 285 x75 x 17 BFG MT. I don't like the way the front sits a little lower than the front, even after the lift. I'm thinking of putting 0.75" coil spacers in front. This will make my total lift in front 3.25". Is there anything else I should do ie.. longer brake cables, adjustable track bar, longer drive lines? This is my daily driver. I do some off-roading on weekends.
Thanks for your help.

I forgot to mention something. The rake is not uncommon in lift kits. They're designed that way as most people eventually add things like larger tires and steel bumpers. Once you get all modded up, they sit close to level. If you don't plan on doing anything that adds more weight, then you either live with it or adjust something. Going higher in the front is the last thing I would do though.

steering wandering
After making the above changes, my Jeep feels like it's all over the road at highway speeds. What causes this and what is the solution.
