1 - Your Jeep Model: Rubicon 2 door (Auto)
2 - Heaviest top: Hard Top
3 - Your Front Left/Right Spring Number: "14" both same
4 - Your Rear Spring Number: "57's" (68004257AA) - Red/Rubicon shocks
6 - The fourth Digit in your VIN: H
7 - Year of the Jeep: 2010
Question:
I recently acquired a set of springs off a Rubicon Unlimited, with tow package, "18"'s (52126318AC) both front and "59" (68004459AA) on the rear. I hope to gain an inch or so or just level out my jeep. Currently the front is weighed down by an LoD Bumper and Winch and the rear has an LoD Bumper with Jerry Cans, rack and HiLift.
I think that there might be a possibility that extended front swaybar links may be needed... but at the same time, hopefully it won't, but only raise the front back or a little more than stock height, due to the weight out there... and same for the rear.
Any thoughts on possible gains or link needs.

I just want to thank the OP and others who have enlightened me with this thread. That being said, I went ahead and replaced my stock "14" fronts for the "18", and also the previously mentioned rears. (only took 2-3 hrs, lunch included)
It now sits level, gaining 2" in the front and 1" in the rear. I don't know what the original height of my rubi was, as it already had the LoD's on it when I got it, but from previous posts, I may be close to factory height with all my added weight.

Must have luck out - It appears the original owner of my 2008 X Unlimited must have gotten an HD suspension. The X had no hitch, but did appear to have 08 Rubi springs according to the numbers 
1 - X Unlimited - 4 door
2 - Hard
3 - 15AB/16AB
4 - 59AA
5 - Black
6 - G
7 - 2008
Does anyone know what the letters AB and AC mean?

choice?
I have a 2011 2 door with a hard top that has 14's on the front and 56's on the back. Overall has a soft ride to it. Maybe to soft. If I put 18's and 59's on how rough would it make the ride. I have read that going with a teraflex coil kit will be a bit stiffer than stock. I guess what my question is, which is going to be stiffer the higher number take offs or the teraflex leveling ciol kit that is suposed to be out in Feb. sometime. Going to be a big difference in price for that amount of lift. The longer sway bar extentions is of no concern because I will be getting some quick discos later.
