Default 4 door springs on 2 door

Hey guys just looking for some help. I have a 2 door rubi manual. What lift hight would I have if I put on TF 2.5" coils for the 4 door. Would it still give me a little more than 3" and just sag less with bumpers and armor added or will it give me more lift than I'm expecting and give me trouble with driveshaft angles. Thanks to all who post.

I don't think TF has different 2.5" coils for 2 v. 4 doors. I think they actually tell you that with a 2 door you'll have more lift.

Oh ok. I thought going with 4 door coils might be the same as a HD coil to keep from losing lift after bumpers and everything.

I think 4 door 2.5 coils are 2 door 3 inch coils. They do have specific coils for 4 and 2 door now, check out northridge in suspension compents.

yes they do have different springs 4 door vs 2 door
I used there 4 door springs on my 2 door due to heavy bumpers / spare etc. and got over 3" lift from the 2.5 4dr kit.

I also put the 4 door coils on my 2 door. I got about 3.25" of lift out of it.

Thanks for all the replies guys. I'll probably go with 4 door springs. That plus my 1 1/4 BL and add some flat flares and I'll be able to throw on some 37's :-)
