Default Leveling

Ok, the factory rake is about 1" on the JK - so to level it, are you leveling the distance from the wheel to the fender (front wheel and rear wheel) or are you leveling the bumper to the ground (front and rear) or are you leveling the step rail to ground at front and back?

thanks, now I think I am a slight bit higher in the front---is that a bad thing? but I still have the factory isolators from the rear spring that was removed to add the spacer. Should I put that back to get it more level?

DOH!

Don't feel bad, I put on my lift and a week later decided to add 1" spacers on top of my new coils. Had to break everything down all over again. FUN!!!
