Pondering the idea to pull my 3.5 rubi springs and putting in 3 in. The reason for this was at golden on a steep downhill my rear came up pretty good.After speaking with others in group it seems I’m too tall. So I’m looking for suggestion on manufacturer,etc.etc.Thank you

1/2" is not gonna matter. I run 3.5" springs and no where near too tall. I run the same RE springs by the way.

What size BL? I run a 1". I would keep what you have. If you wanted to drop it to make a difference I would go to a 2" spring but then you will need to do some trimming or bumpstopping for tire clearance. You also need more seat time in that Jeep. Do some harder trails and get used to the way everything feels. A couple of times with you I thought you were gonna break the steering wheel off with that death grip  //LMAO//

If you can't drive it then no point in changing it. You need seat time to get used to how the Jeep acts in all situations. I know my Jeep very well and know what to expect from it in all situations and that takes time to figure out. Run what ya brung so to speak  //;D//

I think I have ditched the TJ springs long ago.  Or I made yard art out of them.
