Default Second opion on Rancho 2 Sport kit

Hello,I am about to install a rancho 2 sport kit, In a Sahara JKU.. I also have the springs of a JKUR 19/60.. Can I use rancho front springs which come with the kit and the 60 for the rear?

Sure. I have that kit and my Sport came with the 58 springs. I still have a slight rake but I attribute that to the bumper and winch on the front and just a stock rear bumper (which I will be changing soon). I would install the front first and see how it looks without the rear spacers, and then decide from there.

I have the kit, when I installed the 4 door kit on my JKU i ended up with what I would call a "reverse rake" where the front was higher than the back. I also found that I had major rubbing issues with my 285 70 17's on the rear fender flare under flex. I contacted Rancho and they sent me the larger spacer from the 2 door kit to put in the rear free of charge. I still have some rubbing, but I'm planning on trimming the fenders anyway. If you don't have any major weight on the front bumper you might be pretty close to level with the Rubi springs and the smaller spacer.
