.75" will level a 2-door (have it on mine). 1" will level a 4-door. If the goal is to just get rid of the rake, that's what it takes.

I've seen other Jeep around town with same wheels and tires no lift and the wheel wells look stuffed...IMHO

I would suggest at least a 2/1 inch lift

Good luck on your decision....
You should grab a set of reflex monotubes. Totally transforms the jeep.

Looking to get a .75" level to counteract the weight of a bumper and winch... Will i need to get an alignment after?

Ok, I have a potentially stupid question... Just got my JKU recently and it looks like it has a rake to it (like I've read about in these forums) but when I measure from ground to the bottom of the fender at the center of the wheel the front and back are within .25" of each other. Am I measuring from the wrong points? Seems like adding a 2/1 leveling kit would put the front higher than the rear.
Am I missing something? Want to run 34s (285/75/17 Trail Grapplers) and I really don't want to lift it but would level it.

Yes you are measuring from the wrong point. Measure from the pinch seam that runs the length of the body under the doors. You will find it approx 1" lower in the front than the rear, while the fender lips will be the same.
A 34 " tire will probably be a little too big where 33" will work. The Terraflex leveling kit that raises the rear 1" and the front 2" is supposed to work with 34". They say so anyway.
