Default Teraflex 4 inch LCG kit question

I currently have the 4" LCG kit & was looking into adding 1" spacers. My question is does this kit come with spacers & springs to get the 4"s? I was looking at kit online and see coil spacers & coils in picture that's advertised for that kit. And if it comes with spacers & coils what size coil spacer should I order to get 1" ?
Im sure this sounds complicated but I'm trying to stay away from body lifts for now.

Now say the spacers come with kit & they are 1" do I order 4 more 1" spacers that stack on these or do I need to order 2" to replace these. I'm not sure put I don't think your suppose to stack coil spacers.

Hell it may not even be spacers in the picture

You got a 4" kit now,want additional 1" get a spacer kit for front/rear.You may need to add more than 1" of spacers to get a full 1" because of weight or just go with a 1",1-1/2" body lift

Those are not spacers in the picture. They are there to keep the coil in place. If you are looking to get a little more height, purchase some ACOS. That is what I will do. It will allow up to 3.5" of lift in addition to your lift kit.

Actually the kit comes with front/rear 1/2" coil guide/spacers. This kit will lift the front 5.25" by itself on a stock JK.

I got over 5" of lift with my TF 4" kit. Personally not a fan of spacers.

I got a the 4" Sport Rancho used from a 4dr JKU and on my fiances 2dr it got her about 5-6" of height. More than enough that the 35s look tiny and she needs 37-39s now lol Did you measure before and after your kit was installed to see your total lift? Or was it on when you bought the Jeep?

If you want extra lift, sell your 4" coils find some 5-6" coils. Better than starting to use spacers.
