1 3/4" Rear Coil Spacer Addition
To offset the sag in the rear end from the large and very heavy bumper, tire, hi-lift, and gas can, I ordered 1 3/4" coil spacers. For about 45 dollars and change, I had what I needed to level the Jeep out.
Dave (Core4WD) once again did a lovely job of installing the spacers and the Jeep sits beautifully, but in Jeep fashion, you can't make any modifications without creating, what I affectionately refer to as, the "Snowball Effect."
To put it simply, with most modifications, you end up having to make even more modifications to accomodate what you've just done. For example, the simple 45 dollar and change coil spacers have now made the stock rear track bar too short! This caused me to have to order a rear adjustable track bar to fix the problem. But that is not the end! I also needed rear adjustable lower control arms to adjust the axle!! This was not inexpensive, but it totally worth while.
