Thank you !

I was able to put the air lift 1000 on the truck at lunch on Thursday. Arbitrarily put 20 psi.
I initially thought I would put stock wheels on for this trip but then ran out of time.
Loaded ATV and trailer Friday morning and headed west.
The bags made a big difference!
(Top picture was last year, no bags,stock wheels
Bottom picture last week, 20psi, new wheels- 285/70/17 tires)

Thanks-
It was a much better ride as well! No bounce…headlights pointing down the road instead of in the air!

Thanks for the input guys i ended up finding that most people ended up adding or wanting the additional 3/4” in the rear so just went ahead with the 1” to give me a little bit of wiggle room(exactly 1/2” lower in front) when carrying/towing heavy loads. Came out awesome!

Did you install the bump stops with the 1”?

Is an alignment needed afterwards? I only purchased the 1" spacers. No bump stops as for most of what I read are not necessary.? Any issues with stock shocks? Are extensions necessary?

Did you end up doing this? Any pics? This is the route I’m planning on doing as well, wasn’t sure if I needed the bump stops.

Curious if anyone makes a 1.25" front spacer (or a 0.75" that could be combined with a 0.5"). I feel like that would be perfect for having just a bit of rake, probably getting picky but I'll ask anyways.

I'm going to assume the 0.75" rear spacers from some kits would not fit for the front or I would've heard of someone trying it(?)

I went with the 1-1/2" Teraflex and i still have just a slight rake, not much but i think it worked out perfect IMO!

I want to install the 1.5", due to the fact that I'll have a winch. Question for those that did this install. The best practice, as I understand it, is to loosen and retorque the upper and lower control arms, while the jeep is on the ground and I'll be replacing the LCAs, easy enough.

How do you get to the driver axle-side UCA bolts with the thing on the ground? How critical is it to loosen the UCAs? About ready to install without messing with the UCAs and pay a shop to do it down the road.
