Rubi 4dr Coils on 2dr X w TF BB -Anyone?
I will be putting this combo on my X soon and was wondering if anyone has this setup together on a 2 door. The TF 2.5 BB I have run for over a year. I do not have an adjustable trackbar on my JK currently and was wondering if this little extra boost might make it more necessary.
My springs are sagging really bad right now with my heavy winch and custom bumper (click on sig). I am less than a inch off the TF bumpstops sitting in the driveway. My thinking is (danger, caution) that the 1 in increase I would get over the TF BB 2.5 would be absorbed by my extra weight.
I plan to just put the front in for now and see what the rake is without putting in the rear coils. I currently have an ugly nose down rake. A pic of someone with this combo would be nice. If it had a heavy winch and bumper well that would just be something.

I wouldn't get your hopes up that the front Rubi springs will cure the rake with all that weight you have up front. In fact, I removed all 4 of my Rubi Springs and 2.5" BB spacers in favor of the Teraflex's 2.5" coils all the way around to correct this very problem (too much front rake). If I were you I would suggest new 2.5"-3" aftermarket coils. Just my opinion but I've already been through what you're doing.
