Spacer/Coil Swap Question

[Hamandcamo]

So I'm new to the suspension game, and am trying to hash out which way I want to tackle a minor lift.

I have a base sport, and now have 33" muddies. I have also procured some mojave coils and plan to swap them in. I am also getting an arb full width bumper, so Im thinking there will be some sag with that and a winch on the new coils. I know just a mojave coil swap is possible, but I was wondering if I could also add a teraflex 1.5" leveling kit to remove some of the rake and account for the sag. With that bwing said.
1. Is it posible to have both the coils and leveling kit installed at once with no additional parts?
2.What additional parts would be needed to perform this lift
3. I'd be fine just with the coil swap, but would the truck sit level?

Any info helps

With the taller springs and the spacers, you're probably going to want shock extensions.

I have no idea what the travel is on Sport shocks, but you're probably going to be real close to the edge on them.

You will be fine with the spacers and coils. With the Mojave coils and 1.5 you should get about 1.5 lift out of your proposed work. I haven't heard of anyone having problems with the 1.5 spacers. Some will tell you that you will get extra lift out of Rubicon/Mojave springs. You may get up to an additional 3/8 inch with the coils. You should do some before and after photos with a tape measure the see what you actually get in lift. Have fun with your Glad! Come back with pictures after the mod!

Someone please call me out if this info is wrong here but it's my understanding the Rubicon is about 1/2" to 3/4" higher than the Sport and the Mojave is about 1" taller than that with no rake. The spring rates are different but I was told all the trucks have similar rear heights which seems to jive if the Mojave indeed has no rake.

So if you do Mojave springs in front and anything else in the rear, that would give you a level truck.

Should have the answer to this question very soon. We have a 20 Sport non Max Tow, but purchased a set of Rubicon and Mojave springs locally to see which might be the better option. Already put the Rubicon Fox shocks on. Thinking of snagging the longer Mopar lower control arms too, but for now... want to see which springs provide the better lift. Also happen to have a set of rear springs from our 19 Ram 2wd Laramie to try out. If the rear suspension setup really is comprised of parts from the Ram, could be interesting to see if they fit. (orange sticker is from the Ram)

I have an update to this, I should have posted it. I ended up swapping the coils all the way around, and adding a terrafflex leveling kit. The ride is much smoother, jeep is a lot higher up, however, im going to assume that the shocks are experiencing accelerated wear. Obviously, I would not go the speeds of the mojave off road with this. My understanding is that the frame of the mojave itself is totally different, and that the boxed members are 4mm thicker. Is that correct?

I'm color blind, so I think the one on the right is the ram?? Is that right??

Either way, it is going to require a different perch. Look at how the spring coil is not run flush into the lower coil. Like the two on the left.

On my Sport I have a set of heavy front springs, 340 and 343 with a Daystar front 1.5 spacer and .75" rear spacer, also have Rubicon Express shock extensions on the front, Rubicon take off Fox shocks, Mopar lower control arms and Daystar lower front spring correction pads. Stock plastic bumpers, no issues I like the stance and the handling is close to stock.
