well the higher the spring rate, the higher it will sit in the rear. they are all the same length, just a different spring rate.

I do not know honestly how much of a difference. but I read somewhere that a spring out of a rubicon hardtop (the 106) would lift a regular tj 1-2" but I could not find any other info on that being true.


rubicons are lifted from the factory, that is why they will lift the regular tj's the 2"
a stiffer spring rate will give you a harsher ride, all depends on how much higher it is. it will also allow for more weight, which is why they put a higher spring rate in the hard top models to compensate for the extra weight and maintain the same ride characteristics.

in our case from what i have heard is that the tj springs are stiffer than ours to begin with, so going to the highest spring rate would lift a little more and be a slightly harsher rider. may not absorb the bumps as well.
