Need help on what to do
Currently I'm running RK stock mod 2.5" lift with RK LCAs with TF bumpstops front and rear with Bilstein's long travel shocks up front an one for the 2.5" in the rear. On 35's trail grapplers
Hears my questions I was thinking about dropping down in lift maybe a leveling kit or just swap out the springs for 1.5". I would like to stay with a 35 but maybe looking into 33's.
I really don't have time wheel that much and when I do I only do logging roads an mild trails nothing crazy or rocks. I just wanted something closer to stock. Now I do have a steel front bumper upfront so that why I was think about staying away from just pucks cause don't think the stock spring will hold up to the weight over time and will sag.
I'm open to any suggestions on thoughts. And if I do go to smaller spring or pucks I will be selling my 2.5" RK springs

I still have my stock coils so I could put them on for a few days cause I'm sure shipping rates would be almost as much as just buying a set of coils

Aren't there extended bump stops to deal with and perhaps something to ensure the rear brake line can droop far enough? And what about shock length? I think it's more than just switching out springs if you want to change lift height.

if he wants to keep his tires then bump stops would stay. He can keep all of his components to achieve droop and articulation, prob add some spring retainers, keep all the ability just lower the height.

Yeah I wouldn't have to change anything but the springs everything I have now will be fine and with my bumpstops will help without bottoming out the shocks
