This system utilizes the factory coil springs with 3" steel coil spacers. With the vast array of cab and motor combinations found in the JK, utilization of the factory coil springs with this system ensures that the vehicle will receive a full 3” of lift to clear 35” x 12.50 R17 tires. This system includes a replacement Pitman Arm, front and rear Trac Bar relocation brackets, Sway Bar mounts, front and rear Bump Stop mounts and more. Proper front-end alignment is insured with this system due to the included adjustable alignment cams. Also included is a front driveshaft boot clamp kit to allow additional clearance between the front driveshaft and transmission during full suspension articulation.
thats everything it has

I had a TF 2.5 budget boost, added bumper and winch, and sagged a LOT. I talked to Joe, who recommended to remove the front spacers, and if I have a 2 door, use 2.5" springs, and 4 door, use 3" springs. Since I have a 4 door, I got the 3" springs, and I sit perfectly level now. I still just have the spacers and stock springs in the back.
If I were you, I'd get the 2.5" springs and then add a 1" spacer later if it isn't enough.

I went with JKS ACOS, now I have adjustability to my lift. If I add a bumper I adjust. If I add a Winch, I adjust. Different tires with a slightly larger Diameter, I adjust. Get new springs, fine tune my adjustments for spring rate. look into it.
