Shocks have some surface rust but nothing a wire brush and flat spray paint wouldn't fix.

......I think you're doing it wrong.

They're coils, not leaf springs.
It is not a 2" kit as you describe.
This is not the place to sell.
This is not the place to link to your ebay ad.

Like most JK's, mine leans to the passenger side (about 1/2"). A lot of JK's seemed to come with two different number springs in the front, with the heavier spring being on the passenger side. Mine didn't. It came with #14 springs on both sides. I'm currently running #16 springs in the front, but was thinking about changing the passenger side to a #17. Anyone else done this? Good results?

I had the lean on my 2014 jkur. I am running a 2" AEV lift and mine came with 60's in the back and 18's in front. only my front passenger side was lower then the other corners so I replaced the passenger side 18 with a front coil off the rubicon 10A which is taller then any of the other ones that come standard (totally different numbers and ends in 06) any way it has one extra coil and is 1" longer then my -18's. Worked like a charm every corner is exactly level and rides and handles great. I have heard some people say there will be issues because of the extra coil but not on mine.

The Rubicon front sway bar has an electronic disconnect built on to it. If you can get it cheap (most sell for $$$), it makes a very easy to "disconnect" to get maximum flex out of your front suspension.

I have a question. After reading through this thread, great info btw, I went out and looked under my jeep and here's what I got
2009 Unlimited Sahara with tow and G in VIN
Front P/S spring 17
Front Driver spring 16
Rear P/S spring 59
Rear D/S spring 58

My question is WTF ? 4 different springs? Should I switch out that 58 for another 59?
Second question, should I move the 17 to drivers side and put an 18 on front passenger side?
Thanks all.
