Default Next Step Up from Teraflex Levelling Kit

Hi all,

Looking for suggestions on the following situation:

Vehicle: 2009 Unlimited X
Bumper: Rugged Ridge
Winch: M8000
Tires: Goodyear Duratrac 285/70/17
Wheels: Stock, with Spydertrax spacers
Lift: Teraflex levelling kit

Problem: "Heavy" front end feel (I have the "17" springs and the two Teraflex pucks on there now), and a bit flighty. Hit the brakes, and it wants to wander a bit (that could just be normal for the larger rubber though).

Wants: Would like to get about 1" of additional lift front and rear over what the current levelling kit provides.

Questions/Suggestions: So, what would be the next step from the levelling kit, considering I'm running 33ish tires. (Note, I will NOT ever be going 35s...I only make it off-road a couple times a year...and buying a winch is my off-road "exit strategy", instead of gears, 35's etc).

Thanks..

Grant

I'll be in the same boat as you in a few months. I'm leveling out my jeep this weekend, and would like to know see what people would reccomend for the next small step-up.

I would suggest a 2.5" coil or budget boost as the next step, me I would go with the coil kit.
