Jeep Leaning to the Right, exploring options....
Okay guys I've got a 2 inch spacer lift on top of 4 door Rubi springs and they're sagging mainly on the right side from my bumpers, winch, etc. Anyways, if I just decide to replace the springs and ditch the spacers how tall can I logically go with no REAL problems??? I was thinking of doing like four up front and three in the back, or maybe four on both????? My current lift should be about three inches total with the Rubi springs and 2 inch spacers, but I have no clue what it actually is. Any help is appreciated!

Try disconnecting the sway bar links and taking it for a short drive(carefully), then check again if its leaning to the right. Mine sits level with the sway bar disconnected. I still haven't fixed it but having the proper length sway bar links on each side, which will most likely be two different lengths, seems to be the fix for my lean to the right.

My sway bar is always disconnected, the springs are factory off of a 4 door Rubicon. They do not possess the tensile strength to hold up everything correctly after bumpers and winch, etc. This isn't a question of what's the problem, just what size springs I can get away with.

I would give TF a call and provide them some measurements. No reason guessing and hoping to get it right

I had a lean to the right and found the issue on mine. When I wheeled disconnected, the spring came out of it's seat (that groove on the perch) and sat on top of the perch and not in the groove so it caused the driver side to sit a half inch taller. I had reset it once and when I wheeled again, it popped out. So I seated it once again and then put spring retainers on it to keep the spring seated. Now it sits level.
