Default What spacer size will I need?

I have a Hanson stubby winch guard front bumper and a Warn 9.5ti coming this week and id like to know what would be your estimation for the size of coil spacers i should use for the front. The front is already about 3/4'' lower. Or basically, how does a front bumer with winch affect the front end height? Id like to pick some spacers asap so i can do everything the same day

Thanx for your input

I would actually suggest waiting a week or so after the bumper/winch install to decide on the spacer height. It will give the coils time to settle, and it will give you time to check the distance between the bumpstops to see if you might be better off going with a taller coil instead...
