Be been reading about the differences in spring rates but have never played around with it. I added a Warn winch bumper, winch, and oil/trans pan skids and the front lost about an inch. Too much for me. It was nose diving and just handled like crap. My buddy found a set of rubicon shocks and JKU springs. Mine were 14's and 58's.

I put some 18's in the front and here are the results.
No more nose dive and got my inch back, maybe a bit more.

I have 1.5" spacers in the front and .75 in the rear with an additional 1" Body Lift. 255/80/17 BFG's
Both front springs were 18's.
My rears were already 58's so I didn't change them.
Pics are:

1. 14's on the left and 18's on the right.

3. After

 

Looks good

 

Thanks man. It's pretty easy. Takes about 1/2 hr to an hour. I took a little trail up the mountain and disconnected the sway bar and my tires started rubbing and decided it was time for a quick switch.

 

Yea im looking for some 18 or 19 front springs.. Currently have 15s

 

Couple more

 

Looks great - Cheap and easy upgrade!

 

Thanks for posting. I have read the height increase but never seen pics. Did you keep the front spacers? RK budget boost? How much did it stiffen the ride?

 

Yes kept the front daystar spacers. Ride is a little stiffer but for the good. No more nose dive and handles great.
