Default New coils

I have a TF BB on my 4door rubi 2011, I just put a warn bumper and winch on and want the 1/2 inch back that I lost. Can I just add new 3 inch coils and remove the pucks or do I need the whole kit.

You can swap the BB with coils which will alleviate the puck use.

Will the rest of the kit be the same? Bump stops, brake line bracket and sway bar links can all stay on.

Yes, just the pucks will come off. What coils are you looking into?

It sucks to remove, then reinsert those front bumpstops. Be prepared to drop some f bombs. Then again, I'm not the most mechanically inclined so it may be easier for others.

I just ran into the same issue. I want to rip my spacers off completely and add stronger 3 inch coils all around I am just trying to find the right ones that will hold the weight.

I have a new front set of 4.5" coils but they may be too much for what you want...
