speaking from experience will going to 19/60 give my 2-door an even stance? If not, what is the best combo to gain about an inch+ of lift and have a nice level stance?

I have 16's in the front, the rear tags have been lost.

I only had to have a 3/4" leveling kit and it sits perfect...

I remember a member posted on this after asking his parts dealer at the dealership. They SAID it doesn't and it changes from time to time... not sure how accurate that info is though.

What size jack stand is everyone using? Are 3 ton stands tall enough?

I'm using 3 1/2 ton jack stands and if I mount them both under the frame on one side I've got about 2" on ground clearance with one more step to go before they max out in height............plenty of room to get the 33's off.

Thanks! Do you think the 3 1/2 ton stands would allow the axle to drop enough to get the springs out? Or should I just get 6 ton and not worry about lacking height?

I used 6 ton that my neighbor had and they where the perfect height. Was able to drop the axle almost to the ground and the springs just slipped in.

Can anyone help me out here and let me know if these are stiff springs or not? They came from a 2011 JK unlimited Rubicon.
Here's the info:

The part number for the front springs is: 52126318AC.
The part number for the rear springs is: 68004459AA.

Sorry to dump this question on the thread, but I looked through it and don't quite understand the significance of the numbers.

Thanks
