I used 1.75 inch spacers from RE, left out the factory pad for a total leveling of 1.5''.

In the beggining I used the daystar 3/4 inch spacers, they were cheap and worked great.

hey socal4dr- measuring from the center of my rear flare to the ground and the center of the front flare to the ground was 1 1/2'' difference. My Unlimited had a pretty good rake, so a 1 3/4'' spacer with the factory spacer removed gave me a level stance, from what I've seen, there are several stances on the stock suspensions....
