He had talked to David at Northridge and explained his set-up. He suggested the TF 3in springs for the front. Rocker also has an XRC bumper tire carrier on the rear, with the BB spacers on stock springs, so far it's working.

I think he's got the 2.5 coils and was gonna add a spacer up front or the 3in coils.

yes the TF 2.5" coils will hold better than stock coils with 2.5" spacer. Go with the 2.5" coils all the way around... I added a 3/4" coils spacer up front to help with the ~200lbs of RR bumper and superwinch and it sits just fine. I think the 3" coils (more like 4+") will be too tall up front. Your best bet is to contact TF and get their opinion ...

I have a Warn 8274-50 with Warn HD mounting plate on my Rubicon Unlimited. I also have a Tera 2.5 inch coil lift. No sag. If the 200 Lbs of stuff doesn't make mine sag, yours won't either.

yes I have coils all the way around.. flash1034 and others... thanks I think I will be fine as is. If you have 200 lbs and no sag I am sure the winch doesn't weigh over 100lbs... I should be good.
