I just ordered the 2.5" kit.

I have a Rugged Ridge HD front bumper with the steel skid plate and a Warn Evo-S 10k winch.

I figure that comes out to 140 lbs added on the nose of my Gladiator.

@Clayton Off Road should I use a coil spacer to help offset the weight? I currently have Teraflex .5" and 1" spacers that I can use.

It can't hurt. It might even help to level out the ride a bit.


Edit, just saw you were asking Clatyon directly... I will a, b, c my way out of this discussion.

I installed the 2.5 on a stock steel bumper and skid plate Rubicon and when new it was basically level with it settling to have just a bit of rake. After I added a zeon 12s, and it sagged a little bit so I'm looking at adding the teraflex .5 spacer.

I added a .75" spacer to my Clayton 2.5" Ride Right to account for the weight of my JCR bumper, skid plate and Smittybilt winch. It still has a slight rake.
