Hi,
I recently bought shocks and springs from a 2-D Rubicon with steel bumpers, hardtop, and towing package.
I own a 2-D Sport S with a hardtop.
What I want to get out of the shocks/springs swap:
1) Minimal lift (1~1.5in) for better articulation and future K02s.
2) Better suspension to support heavier components such as steel bumper, side armor, a few skid plates, and maybe a low profile roof rack like the maximus 3 or Evo.
3) Better suspension for towing light weight(1000 ~ 1500 lbs).
I've heard people using .5in spacers as well with the installation? IS the point of this to get a higher lift? if so, I don't need that. The other thing I've seen is people buying the Mopar lift lower control arms, is this necessary to correct caster? I want to know what I need to make the swap before I go the shop.
Thanks!
