I am upgrading my 56/14 springs and shocks on my 2012 sport to 58/17 springs and jkur shocks. I read that may gain me up to 2" of lift. My question is, is this just an easy swap, or do I need anything else? Sway bar links, ect...

Thanks!!

just swap and go. make sure your bolts are retightend to torque spec and that's it.

I am planning on doing the same thing this weekend. My 2dr rubi had 16 and 54 and I am in the process of acquiring something stiffer.

Also planning on adding a leveling kit to finish the look.

I would recommend adding at least a 1 inch spacer up front to reduce the rake.

Would I be ok to add a TF leveling kit as well!? I know some say that the spring swap as added up to 2" of lift? Not sure how true this is, but if that's the case I'd be close to 3" along with the leveling kit? Don't really want to get into messing with other stock components

I swapped the fronts only on mine. Went from 14s to 17s and its completely level now..maybe even a touch higher in front. I did this to compensate for the upcoming bumper/winch combo. After the bumper/winch I'm going to see how it looks and go from there.

Nice. I'm actually chopping some bumper off tonight as well

I went from 14 and 55 to 18 and 59 and got a little under 2 inches. No spacers. Not a hard job if you have the right tools. Getting the front passenger side shock off can be annoying because of the location of the fuse box. Also, since I didn't have an extension I had to remove the rear sway bar, but all together piece of cake.
