Thought I’d post up a pic in case anyone else is considering ‘alternative’ lift setups.

Hi im doing this exact lift with spacer but daystar (3/4 inch). My springs are 3665ad which i would use for the fronts and 3601aa which i would use for the rear right? You added a spacer all around or just rear?

You won’t be able to mix up the springs - the rears are the shorter/squatter coil.
I did do the 3/4” spacers all around.

edit: I just realized that I misread this question. I’m not sure which oem springs are which, but I’m sure there is a table somewhere.

That stance looks great! I'm currently running 285/70/17 rubber on a JLUW w/ rubicon suspension take offs. Mine stands as a Ruby would, but considering 285/75/17 tires once these wear out. I also noticed your using Fishbone .75" spacers all around, how are they? I might install them along with Mopar LCA's with the bigger tires.

I prefer the height on the 75 series tires, just gives you that extra half inch that seems to look better AND help out offroad.
The mopar control arms are a must for every Jeep i think. They are perfect for mild lifts like what we’re going for.
I do want to update this: we were not satisfied with the diesel springs - they were just too harsh on pavement for our stock JLUS. I switched to OME/ARB 3153 and 3157, which are way plusher. Bonus: No spacer needed to get almost* the same ride height. The spacers were of good quality and held up fine for the 8,000mi we put on. Now I just need to find a better shock to handle the weight of these tires…

Just another update: I confirmed that i had the 3601 and 3665 JLURD springs. If you are +200-500lb over stock, it rides pretty well. If approximately stock weight, they are stiff.
