I did the teraflex performance 1.5" coil lift.it gives you 2 inch on jku.it ride alot better than the sock coils and you can use your same shocks.coil kit comes with new front sway bar links.Install took me about 3 1/2 hours and 3 beers.way worth the $300.pics are after kit was installed.one with stock tire and 18"rims other with 33/12.50/15 on 15x10 rims

I have been wanting to do about the same. Like to have a little more lift but not really wanting to increase the tire size... yet.

No spacers needed with stock wheels.but after 2" lift I wanted to have alittle wider tires .the duratracs in size 33 are really 32 1/2" at 30 psi so its only 1/2"taller in wheel size but with 12 1/2 ".
