I had the teraflex spacers that came with my lift. I didn't install them when I did the lift and the rear was a little higher then the front. No difference in ride though.

Oh alright yea my lift is the same way. What size spacers do you have? I need an idea of what size spacers to get. Could you take a pic of what your jk looks like from the side? Thanks man

I had Tera flex spacers on my rig just took them off for my lift but spacers are very very easy to install. Just unscrew swaybar links from the axle don't have to fully remove them , do the same for the shocks and unscrew the bracket that holds ur brake lines so they dont break when you drop the axle ,make sure ur frame is on jack stands and have a jack to hold up ur axle now just have a buddy press down on the axle till u can slide that spring out than lube up the spacer slide that on then ur factory spring isolator and put ur spring back in. Reconnect your shocks and swaybar links and your done. My advice is dont hook up swaybar links or shocks until both sides have the spacers and springs installed will make life easier. Hope that helps.

When it comes to coil spacers, just get the cheapest you can find used. There are no "top quality" spacers out there. Buy used to save a few bucks, they are nearly impossible to damage.

Warn bumper installed.
Had a very productive evening. First I pulled my stock bumper off. Then I cut my "bash bar" off. Next I flipped my swaybar e-disco motor using a Synergy bolt. Finally, I installed my Warn stubby bumper.
About the Warn bumper: I paid $371 from Amazon and had it shipped to my door for free because I am a Prime member. Shipping weight was about 65lbs. The bumper is stout and the powder coating is nice. It is a very basic bumper. I plan on installing a Warn Zeon 10-S on it in the near future. With the lower profile Zeon, I think it will end up looking nice.
That is all...carry on.
