If it helps I'm at 38.5" on all four fenders with AEV and PSC bumpers. TF leveling kit with 19/60 springs and red Rubi shocks. The change in ride was very noticeable, much firmer, very nice.

The spring change was the last item I installed. I changed nothing but the springs at that time....

Thanks!
Measuring from the ground using the axle as a centerline to the lip on the underside of the fender nearest the "edge" (note there is no true "edge" on the plastic fenders, it's as close as I could get to similar measuring points).

I did the 19/60 swap. I saw an inch rise up front on a JKU w/ 17/58 w/ 15K miles w/ a steel bumper and winch up front (figure 135 lb over stock once front is taken off). In the end I suspect it'll settle up front to 3/4" total rise (hopefully that's it). In the end I am very happy with the result. The ride is hardly changed, if at all. Hope this helps others!

No it is 100% bolt in but you will benifit from some disconnect sway bar links for off road use.
