I know that the 09 JK comes with the dragster lean on the front. I am adding a Rock Hard front bumper and 10,000 winch this week. My question is what would be the easiest fix to this. I am adding a lift down the road, but want a temp fix for now. Help me rid my jeep of this lean...tks

 

I would think, with the added weight of the bumper and winch, just add a set of coil spacers to your front end. Probly around 2" in the front?? Maybe measure before you add the bumper and winch, than after, and figure another 1.5" on top of the difference.

I was thinking, more like hoping a 2" spacer is all I would need

 

i think if you cant get coil lift you should get a 1.75" spacer for front axle and that should level it. daystar makes them. got the 3/4" in mine and love it. really i would get the terraflex 2.5" spring lift and go from there.

 

There is no 'easiest' fix. Adding a spacer or putting in a whole new coil involve the same amount of work, since you have to remove the existing coils for both. With all the added weight, new coils would definitely be preferred, since your stock ones will be squished.

But how soon is ? That is what I would base my decision on...

 

Hoping to put on the 3.5"AEV/Nth degree premium lift in about 10 months. So the the coil spacer should suffice for that long.

 

The spacer will not eliminate all of the rake, but it be a bit less than stock. The AEV kit is a great choice since you have extta weight on the front. If you add a rear bumper and carrier you l sit level with great handling.
