Greetings,
Rough Country has had one and now Teraflex does too. Has anyone tried either of these kits?

Long story short...I bought a Rubicon takeoff suspension and put a 1 1/2" Daystar spacer on the front and a 3/4" in the rear to take out just a little of the rake on my 2020 Base Sport (w max tow). For the most part, It cleared the 37's ok and drove fine. Fast forward 14 months and I'm upgrading my Base Sport to a 2021 Sport S. Before trading it in, I took off the Rubicon suspension (and Rubi shocks) and put on the factory suspension and factory wheels and it drove almost exactly the same way. I realized the basic shocks were pretty darn similar in normal driving situations which I do 99.5% of the time and the springs didn't feel any different.
I want more height than I had with the 1 1/2" Daystar spacer but don't really feel the need to swap out the entire factory suspension that is rated to tow 7600#. Plan would be to combine either of the 3.5" spacer lifts with Rancho Geo Correction Brackets and an adjustable track bar on the front and use a 1 1/2" spacer on the rear.
How high is too high for a spacer lift?
