I’m looking at other options besides getting some rubicon take off springs and shocks for my sport. I put some 295 Patagonia’s on there and I’m just looking to gain an extra 1-1.5 inches. Besides rubi take offs what other shock and spring combos are you all happy with that would gain me just this little bit and keep the ride quality similar to stock. FYI really expensive shocks (like reservoir‘s) are probably out of my price range right now
Thanks in advance.

This........ https://www.4wheelparts.com/p/tuff-country-ez-ride-2-lift-kit-42105/_/R-BKFW-42105


And 2" longer shocks. Even the RS5000X rancho shocks @ $50 each are going to provide better control than the stock Rubi shocks. This is my setup plus a Falcon 2.2 EF steering stabilizer and 305/65 tires. Bigger tires need better shocks. The shock sleeve parts in this kit are not needed with the RS5000X shocks.

The Rubi springs will give you about the same but stiffer ride. 295/70 are a bit taller than my tires.

Traxda makes a 1.5 front,1 rear spacer leveling kit as well.

Or like above post get a 2 spacer lift. There's several out there. With spacers you know exactly how much your getting.

With your 295s I'd get at least a 2 spacer lift. Jmho.

Yeah. Just trying to see if I can gain the lift buy adding new shocks and springs instead or just the spacers though.

Call Tera flex and tell them what size spacer you want and they will give it to you a heck of a lot cheaper then Traxda. I paid a little under $70 for a 1” front and .5 rear.
