I was looking at you post which got me thinking about other leveling kits. What I don't get and maybe you can clear this up for me is why no rear springs. And this kit does it have a nice ride or would I need to update shocks.

I believe their reasoning was that the rear springs are already pretty heavy duty and to lift it just a little to level it out with the front would be a waste of engineering and money. Here is a link to the original press release:

RESS RELEASE: EVO-1095 Jeep JK (07+) 1.5" HD Leveling Kit
the rear coil spacers give the rear the added boost needed to compensate for added rear equipment without adding spring rate to the already payload rated stock rear springs.
The kit does have a nice ride. I am running stock Rubi shocks, but some Blistein shocks would probably make the ride even better than it is now.
