I answered you're question in post #8 and so did WOL in #2. If you set the JKS 2.5"-6" links to the shortest length you'll be fine.

Great, so I'll assume that it's okay to run the 2.5-6" with what is in essence a .5" lift? The bumpers and winch pretty much negate the 2.5" BB.

Putting in my order now. Thanks guys!

The 2.5 RC BB should have been 2.5 in the front and 1.75 in the rear. They do this to level out you Jeep. When you added you're bumper and winch you lost about an inch. So if I'm correct you should still have 1.5" of lift. I would be really suprise if you are down to only 1/2". I would put another 1" spacer in there to get you back level. Anyway the longer links should be OK set at the shortest length. You're swaybar will be angled up slighty and should be fine.

Im running 1 3/4 spacers in front and 3/4 rear. I ordered the 2.5-6 discos last week. Ill try it out when they come in. Im ordering a TF 2.5 lift soon so if it doesnt work ill just wait to install them.

I would like to hear first hand from someone running these with a leveling kit though, if not ill post up this weekend...

Also, i cant believe you lost 2 whole inches from a winch and bumper..

I'm down at least 1.5" with bumpers winch and a 35" on a steelie. I've got the BB kit on stock (non-rubi, non-tow, non-hardtop) springs.
