    I have a 2020 1974 4x4. 90% of my driving is highway and around town. When its offroad, it on farm roads to and from the hunting camp. This is a vehicle that I entertain clients in. That's why I purchased the 1974 edition. I also would like to retain the factory ride, but the rake is killing.

    I was formerly in a JK Unlimited so I am fairly new to the independent front. I would appreciate any input. I really just need to put some bigger more aggressive tires on the truck.

    If your going to have clients in there I wouldn’t go with a spacer lift. Your going to have them bouncing all over the place

    I will never be an advocate of spacers. Grab some 5100s or 6112s from bilstein

    Spacers are most affordable but ride will decline somewhat, hardly noticeable on pavement. $500ish
    New shocks can get you 2" (I believe) and retain your factory ride. $800-1200ish
    Either way an alignment will be needed.

    Something we shoulda asked is what’s ur budget? 5100 and 6200 bilstein are great for the price. But more options are available if money isn’t an issue
