    Soon to be 4WC Raven host. Mods to come.
    Old Man Emu 613 will give you 2.5" lift.

    Put some weight in the back. It’ll even out for a smooth ride.

    Not sure I want a lift, stock height is fine with me. Lifting always causes me to have alignment issues lol

    Also I’m only 2wd

    I would get some adjustable coilovers up front and heavier springs. The Bilstein 5100 and Eibach Pro lift springs with the 5100s set to the lowest setting provides 1" or so of lift with a stock front bumper. You may find that setup on the middle setting is about right for what you're doing.

    OME Nitrocharger/2612 (front), Bilstein 5100s (rear). Vanguard roll bar modified (by me) to fit over Patriot Stealth retractable tonneau. Aftermarket halo headlights with HID, various LED bulb replacements. 17" Fuel Blitz wheels with some 33" Nitto terra grapplers. Hoodscoop, nfab nerfbars, Bushwacker flares. No-name aftermarket grille, led fender extensions. Black Horse bambi-basher. Various offroad lights.
    I think he means that the 613s are often used to bring front end suspension heights back up to previous after adding a heavy aftermarket bumper. But this is generally on trucks running OME or Bil 5100s that have been leveled/lifted. Since you are running stock height, probably just get an appropriate set of Eibachs/whatever as mentioned above. What set that is, couldn't tell you, but can tell you I did business once with Off Road Warehouse and the sales rep was very knowledgable on coils, ended up selling me a set of Eibachs for a custom application. Might check them out.
