Default Rubí takeoff shocks w/o the springs

Could I install Rubi shocks but keep the current springs that came with my Jeep? How would it affect ride quality?

Yes you can install the shocks without changing springs. They ride a little firmer than the sport shocks, little less nose dive when hard braking, but not like riding on a cloud of air.

A rubi does not have different springs compared to a Sport. Only the shocks are different. I put rubi shocks on my 2012 jku sport and noticed an improvement in ride quality. A little less harsh when hitting bumps on the highway.
