Default Smallest coil lift for 2dr

Guys,

what's the smallest lift kit with coils (not with spacers) available on the market?

I used to run 2.5 Tera coil lift on my 07 2dr JK, but its too big for 33s. Now I'm planning to buy a 2011 2dr JK and want to lift it a bit to fit 33s.

Looking at OME 2 inch lift with light load springs, however, I think that it would also be too big for me.

Thank in advance!

Terraflex is currently designing their leveling kit for a two door. 2" up front and 1" in the back

From what i have read on the forum most people get two inches of lift on the OME kit even after installing bumpers and a winch. It kind of makes me want some of the HD coils for my JK.

Hopefully someone with this kit will throw in their two pennies, Good Luck!

Thanks for reply. This kit would be a nice option if not the 2" in the front since I'm not going to install an aftermarket bumber or a winch. I will have nothing to level out.

The leveling kit is actually made to level the jeeps factory rake, it makes the jeep look way better!

The factory rake suits me fine. And I love the look when the front is just a bit lower than the rear. On my 2007 JK I had 2.5" TF coil kit with 3" coils in the rear. And I loved the way it looked hence for the height.

Thanks.
I heard that light load gives about 2.25 to 2.5 inches w/o bumpers or winch on 2dr. Heavy load gives up to 4" on 2dr.
Also hope to see feedback from the owners.

Or better yet, buy a set of rubi unlimited springs and rock those! That will give you approx 1" and then trim the fender flares and you are good to go!

Thanks, but I love the look of the stock flares and don't want to trim them either! I just want to lift it a bit)
