Default 3" rear coils

Well, first I had the teraflex 2.5" bb on my 2dr rubicon and thought getting some 3" full traction hd springs up front would get rid of the rake and compensate for the new bumper and winch and now I've got some reversed rake. I've been looking for some 3" rear springs but the only ones I can find say they will lift a 4 door 2" and a 2 door 3". Is this true? I'd like to get some 3" rears specifically for a 2dr. Thanks, wess

You can order a set of 3" rear springs directly from Full Traction. Or you can probably get them from Dave at Northridge as well. I got a set of 4" rears from FT they aren't very expensive.

Hmmmm, looking at your picture and lining up the top with the bricks in the back ground it looks like it is still raked forward.

I have OME HD springs in the back of my 4dr and they give at *least* 3" of lift -- probably more. My FT springs sagged to the point that they had to be replaced.
