    I am now sitting at:

    FR FL
    37.5 37.5

    RR RL
    36.75 37.0

    The front has dropped down a lot since I first dropped it off of the jack stands (the front was originally at 39" in the front lol). This is ok for now because I anticipate getting a steel front bumper/winch combo and that will more than likely level it out for me.
    so did you remove the front BB spacer and just set the 5100s to 2" OR did you leave the spacer in and set the 5100s to 3/4"?

    Left the RR spacer in and set the struts to .75". I needed more lift and the highest setting wouldn't have been enough without an additional spacer anyway.

    Jeep has been on the back burner this year it seems. Still driving it daily, up to 112k now. It's about to get all new ball joints and control arm bushings to get rid of some squeaks and rattles. Still looks good though
