Hi, I am new to this forum. I have some mechanical abiltity, I am installing ruby springs and fox shocks on my 2020 sport S and i want to take some of the rake out of the front end. (want a little more space in the wheel well for a set of 285 75 R17 tires) does anyone know if that small amount of lift requires any parts (sway bar end links, drop brackets) to retain stock ruby ride? any imput would be greatly appreciated!

I have a 2021 Sport. I put Rubicon suspension (shocks and springs) on. It sat exactly the same, but is way more firm. I then put 3/4" spacers in the front. It doesn't set level, but, I like a little rake. I have 285-75-R17 tires and it handles Great!

Also, if you’re going to put a winch + steel bumper you’ll be happier at 1.5”

Thanks for the response, glad to hear that it doesn't change the geometry enough to cause any problems and that the 285 75/R17's fit ok

Looks great. Did you do rubicon takeoff suspension swap?

Do you have any pics ? I am wondering how much rake is left. I will probably go with the terraflex kit gives you options of 1/2, 1, or 1.5 inches. Thx

I did 1.5 teraflex on the front. Picture in the lot is before the kit. Leveled mine out perfect. Also stock suspension looking for rubicon take offs
