Daystar Leveling kit review

[ajkitebrder40]

I'm thinking of installing this on my JLUR to balance out the rake from the winch/bumper (roughly 7/8") and continue running 33's for now.....possibly move to 35's down the road. Is anyone running a stock JLUR with these 3/4" spacers and 35's?

I've had the F&R spacers on for a while now. Just went to 315/70R17 BFG KO2s on AEV Borah wheels (17x8.5 +25) last weekend. Haven't been offroad yet, but I'm sure it'll be fine.

Cool, so you did 3/4" front and rear? Or larger in the front for the weight offset?

3/4" F&R. there's still a rake to it, so if you want to get rid of that, you'll need to go bigger in the front.

not the best pic, but mine's on the left and the one on the right is a stock JLUR 4xe with 1-3/4" wheel spacers and no other mods

Do the rear spacers go above or below the spring? If above, is there a bolt holding it in or does it just rely on the spring pressure? The Teraflex kit has a bolt and c-washer that goes above the spring perch and was a pain in the nuts to install.

It just sits on top. no bolts. I've been fully flexed out on an RTI ramp and a good bit off road and never had any issue with it.
Here's a link to the install sheet. https://www.quadratec.com/sites/default/files/installation_instructions/Daystar-KJ09181BK.pdf

Still on 285/70R17s but with the spacer lift in this pic.

Today on the 315s

Over the weekend I got to do the shake down ride with the JL Borahs, 315/70R70 BFG KO2s abd the 3/4" Daystar F&R spacers.
All good. No rubbing.

Anyone else running this setup on a JLUR with stock wheels and 35's?

Looks like a lot of fun!
I have a JLU Sport that I’m switching to rubicon take off that was similar to yours with a soft top and steel bumper. I was thinking of going with a 1 inch teraflex spacer in front but am getting caught up with either going with these 3/4 daystar or a 1/2 inch teraflex for the rear. Im wanting to sit as level as possible but would rather have a slight rake than being nose up. I’m currently running 295/70/r17s on kmc Dirty Harry rims with Mickey Thompsons legend AT with a spare adding a little more weight to the back. I’m planning on adding the rubicon metal bumpers in front and back eventually but that is all. Any thoughts on which way I should go?
