Adding a front bumper and 1" spacer
I have a Terraflex 2.5 coil lift and Bilstein shocks. I am want to install an ACE stubby front bumper with bull bar.
The other day I put the ole jack under the current stock front bumper and raised the front one inch. The Jeep looked better. If I install the Terraflex 1" front spacers and the ACE bumper, will it go back to current height?
1/2 inch drop will not be too bad if it drops any
pics below show jeep as normal with the jack in the rear (the jack is just there not used)
The other pic with the jack in the front is lifted 1"

Will you also be putting a winch on? Without a winch, you won't lose much at all but after the winch expect to lose 1/2-3/4 inch. Do the spacer and make sure not to piss of the driveshaft. Or jump up to the 3" coil.
Notsoricer,
Winch maybe one day but not on my list as of now. Front drive shaft after the Terraflex 2.5 lift is already tossing grease. This will be on my soon to replace/upgrade list.
Thanks Catahoula
Chris,
How do you like the daystar 3/4 spacer?

but actually jack in the back pic looks right to me the other looks like its going to roll backwards they need a slight rake I feel I know every one has their taste but to me id go with the pic with jack in the rear of jeep but once u add the weight its gona drop so id add the bumper first wait a month then decide how much to add up front
any body know the tork specs on shocks and the swaybar links

To be honest, it's probably best to use if you are adding weight up front. If you want to keep the factory ride though, that's the way to go. I recently took those spacers out of the front, added stiffer factory springs as well as a Teraflex leveling kit (spacers) and love the ride now.
If you are looking for front spacers, as I mentioned I'll be happy to part with them.
