The spring will be better but if you are looking for a cheap way to go until you put a bigger lift on in a few months/years..go with the puck...

Agree completely! You won't regret it.

Go with the spring if you plan on adding off-road bumpers.

I installed the TF coil spring leveling kit on my 2dr several weeks ago. I love the way it rides and looks. I have 32's on my jk right now and I don't plan on going any larger. I actually wheeled last weekend with the front disconnected with no issues. Talk to Dave at northridge, he will take care of you!

This man speaks the truth. I just bought a spacer kit in january and its holding me over until i get my TF 2.5 coil kit. Its a good option if its only temporary. It will not hurt your wallet too much

x3Just ordered mine yesterday to keep the 33's off the flares. Got my eye on some other mods before I buy OME kit, so it is a great quick fix!

Default leveling kit
I installed the leveling kit this past weekend, rides stock, which is nice. drove on a warehouse service ramp that night flex was nice no rubbing. But if your gonna put in 35's do the coil lift, no sense in doing the work twice. I'm running 33x12.5 duratrac on 15 inch black rock 909s. wife is only 5 feet tall so thats about how tall im gonna go on a lift for now. Unless i get a new wife thats taller!!!
