Question regarding level kits.

[Cthehentz]

So this weekend I installed the Daystar 1.5" level kit and that gave me the exact look I wanted. Now my question is can I just order springs to get the same look without using a spacer?
So, what spring and what length shock to keep the same ride as stock or close to?

There aren’t too many companies making 1.5” springs, I think eibach does and that’s about it. I have no reference on how they ride, but nothing will ride similar to stock except a spacer lift. Fox makes shocks for 0-1.5” lift and I do have those. They are exceptional and I really like them.

I am thinking of doing just a simple puck lift as well on my Rubi. Have you flexed it out to see if you have any issues with the stock shocks? Ideally this is the direction I want to go with this build and keep it close to stock as possible. I don't do major off-roading like I used to.

The daystar level kit came with the shock relocation bracket that works but I am ordering the proper length shocks. I did flex it the other day and everything is fine BUT I want 35" tires so that may change, my biggest challenge now is what rim to get, I want methods but color is taxing my brain, I'm torn between bronze and gloss black.

you will still be fine with 35's on a Rubicon. I had them on my jeep for a short period of time with 1.5" wheel spacers and never rubbed. In fact the guy I sold them to also has no rubbing.

That's a good look...Is that with stock springs in the rear, or did you add 3/4" Daystar spacers back there to level it up? Hard to tell but maybe its slightly higher up front?

Only spacer on the front and stock springs on the rear. I ran it like that for a couple months until I was able to source a in stock lift kit. The picture shows the level kit with 35” tires.
