2.5" lift
So I decided to go with a rubicon express 2.5" with the monotubes....I installed them myself about 2 weeks ago...I was loving the difference at first...I could even tell from inside when I drove it! BUT....now I think I've gotten used to it...and it looks like I wanna go higher. Any suggestions to how I can make it higher without hurting the pocket(again) and compromising the ride? I've heard of people throwing spacers with a kit but I'd like to hear some opinions before I start taking things apart. Also I'm located in south fl so it's safe to say I won't be doing any hard flexing.

Nothing adjustable....new lowers on the back and the rear oems on the front...I love the ride now just thought I could make it like a half inch higher...but you're absolutely right....why mess with it....I plan on going 35s...would they raise a little?

More height with 'no' change in steering/handling? Body lift.
There are two threads stuck right to the top of this Modified area. If you have not opened them, they are worth spending a few minutes on.

I also have the RE 2.5 inch lift. I have 315s and right now it's a perfect combo. You can probably get away with a half inch cool spacer. I think you have a four door? I doubt you'd run into issues going another half inch but someone else may chime in with first hand knowledge.

Affirm. I used the FlashPaq. Either one will do the trick. With wheel spacers and the 2.5 inch lift you should be good to go.
