This may have been covered on here at some point, but I didn't find an answer to my specific question. I have an 08 JK 2 door with a 4.5" SkyJacker lift and 35" tires. I recently fabbed a rear bumper and tire carrier. The extra weight has sagged the rear a bit. I am also planning on adding a winch to the front soon. With the added weight of the winch, I would assume the front will sag a little too. Here's my question: Can I add coil spacers to my SkyJacker lift? Anybody know what is acceptable without getting into trouble? I was thinking about Daystar's 3/4" spacers. Any issues with these? I will wait until the winch is installed before I make any decisions, but that is what I am leaning towards. Please let me know if any of you have any suggestions. Thanks!

 

as long as you have all the right suspension components and driveshaft, yes you can add coil spacers.....

 

x2.....you could possibly need new control arms and driveshafts with a lift of that size. Your driveline angles get wacky at that height.

 

I forgot to mention...I have already replaced the rear drive shaft, and I have adjustable rear upper control arms. I was hoping that the 3/4" spacer wouldn't be enough to require any more driveline work. Am I dreaming?

 

you should look into front lower control arms also you could benifit from them even with the setup you already have then ya can get 2"spacers if ya wanted!!!!

 

front lowers and re adjusting everything i would imagine. 5 inchs of lift would be nice though.

 

4" coil w/ 2.5" spacer here, no problems. Just make sure you have control arms / trackbars, or your steering is going to be painful! I'd also suggest a flipped draglink if you go higher than 5".

I ran with just front lowers / rear uppers with a 4" coil w/ 1" spacer for awhile and it was still pretty flighty.
