You can get 2 daystar front & rearspacer kits for 80 bucks from Qtec, stack 2 fronts & use 1 rear spacer & it will sit great. I used this set-up before my 3 inch lift, sorry no pics

I also installed the Daystar .75" spacer on the front. Still have a little rake and I am probably going to buy the 1.75" front spacer set from Daystar as it is the same price as another .75" set.

I therefore have a couple of questions for you all-knowledgeable in this matter out there in cyberland.

1) Did we measure wrong...and that's why I can only find 1.75" spacers?
2) Can I stack 2x.75" spacers to add up to 1.5"?
3) Is the 1.75" spacer (or any spacer for that matter) going to sag? ... hopefully to 1.5!

I'm running stock 32's and I don't want to go with a full lift, I just want the Jeep to just look right! Any advice you can offer would be greatly appreciated. Thanks all.

Here is what you want: Daystar 1 3/4 inch front leveling spacer. I have it and it is levels the jeep perfectly. I posted about it before and there are pictures in the post.
