This is what happens when your stuck in the barracks with nothing to do. But, one more crack about my iPhone and I'll do a special relocate of your breathers when I come over for our custom snorkel project!

Coil spacers will work well for the OP.

My warning was to simply let people know that the stock shocks have a limited travel range and running them with a coil spacer lift without the shock extenders isn't the best idea. There has to be a reason the lift kits include shock extenders or longer shocks.

I was thinking about doing the same as the OP to my Sahara.
Dont want anything radical. Just something for a little edge.
Also thinking about Spidertrac wheel spacers
as I dont want the expense of getting new wheels/tires..

The coil lift will look good. I put rubi coils and shocks on with TF 2.5" BB and live it... Guess I kind of made my own coil lift...
