Spacer lifts limit up travel of the system. Basically, what you are doing with a spacer is "lowering" the upper spring perch on the frame of the vehicle. That's why they are looked down upon. They're a great budget friendly way to achieve lift, but have some limitations. If you are looking to max out an RTI ramp and have a lots of articulation, they aren't for you.
Thanks. Yeah I think going the rubi spring root is the best bet. Sounds like I first need to see what springs I have now, then take it from there.

Benny helped me out on the springs for my Willys. I have yet to do the swap but here is the info he gave me. Hopefully it helps you out. I vacillated between a spacer lift vs a spring swap too and think doing the springs and longer LCA’s is just enough.

He took my vin and compared it to similarly optioned Rubicon and came up with these springs.

Here are links to the springs

That's what I thought on my Willys.
Now 4.5 lift 37s with bead locks and a lot lot more.

JLUW 3.6, soft top, plastic bumpers, but going to steel bumpers front and rear and Benny accounted for that weight in the spring rate he quoted.
I gave him my vin, and he sourced a Rubicon for the way my intended build is going to go and he gave me the right springs.

Great service from Benny.

He even found me High rise flares which are apparently unavailable anywhere for some reason.
