Default how much sag are you Rubi owners getting with winch and bumper?

I'm looking at all my options before i purchase anything as far as lifts go and this could be a deciding factor.

How much is the front sagging when you add a winch and aftermarket bumper with stock coils?

It's really not bad. I wouldn't stress over it. Your mpg will drop.

I put in 1.5 spacers to get rid of the rake and the sag. Warn rockcrawler and 9.5ti hanging off the front end.
