Do a 1" or 3/4" Teraflex front spacer and Spidertrax wheel spacers and you will be set.

If you ever have to take it in for warranty everything could be removed in no time.

Get everything from here;

Dave will set you up and he is a member here on the forum.

If you all want to do is remove the front rake then keep is simple and use 3/4" or 1" spacers. As far as mods go they are inexpensive and easy to install. Lifts are great, but as you increase the amount of lift on your Jeep you also increase the amount of items that may need to be adjusted or replaced to compensate for the lift. The OME coil and shock lift that I installed required both axles to be recenter with new adj track bars and the steering wheel had be re-centered. All this is relatively easy to install with some basic tools and common sense. Spend some time reading prior threads on this forum before you make a final decision on mods for you JK. Good luck.

x2 on David at Northridge 4x4. He knows his stuff and is a great contributor on this forum.

Does anyone have experience with the Rough Country 1.75 Suspension lift? Looks like that would do the trick, no? Whats the benefit of using a coil lift instead?
