Default Teraflex 2.5 coil lift add .5" spacers

What is the general consensus about adding .5" spacers to the 2.5 " coil lift with shock extensions on a 2012 JKU? I would like just a bit more lift.

Everyone does this cuz the tf springs sag after a while especially if you have heavy bumpers and a winch

Not to hi-jack, and to build on the initial question, how about 1" spacers in front and rear? I have them in the rear already and thought about running some in the front in the event I get a winch, but I am also running rubi shocks with adapters.

I had 1" spacers added to my 3" Ted lift after my rig got weighed down. No problems with it

I am putting this setup on mine next Sunday. I am using Billsteins instead of the shock extensions though. Once you get the added weight of a bumper and whatever else on there, they will sag so the extra 1/2" will be a good thing.

Go for it. I just intalled my 2.5 coil lift this week (and other things) and i got 3" of lift in the front and about 1.5" in the rear which I thought was odd since I pulled the rear seat out and still have the stock spare tire in the rear and stock bumpers. Mine actually feels slightly low in the rear so next week i will be adding some 1/2" rear spacers. Good luck.

I've been running this setup for about a year with 1" spacers. Works great but I had to add break lines and a new drive shaft. When
