Default Why no 1" leveler spacer available? only 3/4, 1 3/4, etc?

I'm looking to do a mild lift only, My jk is a daily driver.
ive measured a good lift, fender tire gap and i'd really prefer just a 1" lift.

How come all i see is 3/4, 1 3/4, etc. no 1"

Im starting to contemplate machining a 1" spacer for the front out of aluminum if i cant find one out there. any info?
thanks

I think the 3/4 is a front only designed more for leveling than anything else.

What amount of spacer does it take to level out a STOCK hard top 4 door, JK...1" or 3/4"? NOT taking into consideration aftermarket add ons, bumpers, winch, etc.

park it on level ground. meausre up to the front . jack up the front of the body, get it where you want it to set, measure it again at the same spot.

the difference is the spacer height you want to make it look the way you want it to.

they all vary a little, and your preference is involved too.
