Anyone use a PMF spacer lift? 1.5 or 2 inch?

[Wrangler98]

I’d like my truck a lil more level but I’d still like an inch or 1.5 inches of rake for towing. Ideas?

I’m doing 1in procomp lower spring spacer
Don’t need shock extensions or anything else.

Diesel? What is your current rake?

Remember truck already has 1/2in rise from factory so anything you do that 1/2 needs to be factored in. Stock shocks lose there off-road performance capabilities at around 2in rise so unless you invest in leveling kit (add other parts) I would stay around 1-1 1/2in spacer regardless of your rake. I have camper also and wanted some rake the same as you.

I have purchased the 1.5 inch PMF lower spacers. Has anyone installed them without the adjustable camber bushings and track bar? Not trying to break the bank. Thanks

I had a set on a different Ford truck and hated them. They are made very cheap and the handling was not so good after the install. I had them installed at the alignment shop. They were able to change the caster with an adjustable part ( additional $$) and get the alignment good. But still not happy with the handling. I removed them and tossed them in the garbage.

Thank you for an honest review Papa. I may hold off a while longer

I think it's a good move to shop around. The real deal lift kits ( Carli) with all the arms, bars and shocks keep your geometry intact. Therefore the ride and handling will be as good or better than stock. The doughnut ring level kits change the geometry and the damping of the shocks with the extended "lift".
