Default Teraflex 2.5" Spring Lift Install ???s

I am picking up my lift tomorrow. I am currently running a stock 2 dr X non tow package. When I installed my winch in the front bumper I had to add 1.5" Teraflex spacers to help level her out.

When I install my lift should I reuse the Teraflex spacers in the front minus the stock spacers or will it sit level enough with just the stock spring pad in there, or do I need both together? Are the springs in this kit heavy duty enough to not need the extra spacing? I really don't want to have to do the front end twice to get it the right hight.

Thanks.

I went from a stock x with no lift or spacers to a tera 2.5" coil lift and it sits perfectly level, no more rake in the front. Im not sure if youll need the spacers with the winch but my guess would be yes

I know a lot of people that run this lift. I myself had it as well for over a year, its a great lift. Its designed to take the OEM rake out with the OEM bumper, but if you add a 3rd party bumper and winch specifically, I would throw on a 3/4" spacer, this worked perfectly for me and all my friends that did the same install. 1.5" spacer I think will give you reverse rake with the 2.5" TF coils up front... Thankfully the coil spacers from SkyJacker are like $35 shipped so not to pricey
