Springs
2 Door springs are designed to support a base curb weight of 3760 lbs and Unlimited are rated for a curb weight of 4277 lbs. While you are going to get some height gains your ride will be stiffer. Some people like that. I prefer a stiffer ride but thats my preference.

My rig is already pretty modded. And 35's I already have.
My current set up has the terraflex spacer level kit. So I'm just looking to get rig of the spacers. I like the current stance, but if it increases by .5-1.00 when I install these, that's fine.
So k got the springs (17/59's) and I just picked up some BDS shocks for a inch lift.
What else should I grab?
I got brake line extensions on the list as well as the possibility of bump stops. Any idea what size bump stops I should need.
I'm thinking I might need to add ONE of the terra flex spacer up front to level it with these springs. But what do you guys think I'll get from a lift? My rig has some weight to it, I have full metel front bumper and rear bumper, tire carrier, metal flat fenders etc.
Here are some pics of my rig.

Upgrading stock coils is great for a little while but it doesn't last. I've been through many sets of stock coils. I finally bought 2.5" coils and I'm much happier with a constant height.
As far as bumpstops, you'll only need enough to keep your shocks from bottoming out. You have more uptravel with those fenders and with what you've got, the shocks should be the only limiting factor.

Put Spidertrax spacers on, other than that nothing else. I'm not sure if the ride is stiffer or not, I haven't ridden in another jeep for comparison. I've always had 4x4 pickup's and my jeep rides pretty much like they did. Being a 2 dr I think the short wheel base may make it a bit stiffer but I don't know. Hell, it's a 4x4 and I expect it to be a bit rough riding.
