The best way I can explain why most people add spacers with a leveling kit is because perfectly leveling a vehicle is hard!
Take our 1.5" kit for example, it perfectly levels out most Rubicon model JT's, but any heavy accessory that is added to the front or rear is going to throw that off. Sport and Sahara models are always going to be a little lighter when stock, so those naturally will gain a little more lift in the front as well.
Best thing to do is to get the 1.5" leveling kit installed first, and then measure for what size spacer you need in the rear. Ultimately every build is going to be a little different, and so results are always going to vary when trying to get the vehicle perfectly level. Hope this helps!
