I'm going to run the same setup on my 07. My understanding is if you want to level the jk you should run the front leveling spacers, especially if you are running a front bumper and winch. Then again I'm just staring at my parts for now and have not tested for myself!

It definitely levels the jeep at first but you may get some sag over time. Especially if you add heavy bumper and winch so spacers can help like an earlier poster mentioned.

Just add some 1/2" coils spacers in with the kit if you plan on a heavy bumper.

I added 1/2 front and thought, even with my Rock hard4x4 full width bumper and winch, that she was nose up. Ended up with a 3/4 in the rear to level the 1/2 in the front out.

I don't plan on any heavy bumpers for a good while. Just adding the 18inch wheel on 33 to the spare tire carrier. So I should be good without spacers correct? Or should I get 1/2 inch spacer for rear?

I got the Teraflex 2.5" coil lift and put spacers in the rear. I like the factory rake because I often put heavy stuff in the back and hate it when the ass end droops.
