Default Rubi Spring question

Will stock spring from a 4dr Rubicon give any lift what so ever to a 2dr sport?
Thanks

depends on what the last two numbers are on the coils. typically the rubi coils will provide some additional lift, but as mentioned, really depends on those last two numbers. you'll want to look for 18/19 as the last two on the front and 58/59/60 on the rear coils. take a peek at the "for sale" forum under "suspension" and you'll see what i'm talking about.

My take-offs were 14's and 56's. The vehicle sat higher than the sport.

I was wrong. The new rear springs are 59's. I feel like in going to have a huge rake in my front end.

You'll want 19's up front with 59's in the rear on a 2 door.

Just installed a set of 4 door springs over the weekend. Already had the TF leveling kit.

I got an extra 1" up front and 1/2" rear. I have heavy bumpers, winch, hardtop and big OR-FAB tire carrier.

Jeep sits perfectly level and love the new ride. No more diving into corners!

I'm stock all around. Last week I switched out 14/56 for 18/59 and gained 1 inch in the back 1.5 in the front.
