I have an older 3.5" rusty's full pack lift and installed it in July and have driven it over 2,000 miles since over state lines to school, it's great in every way!

I always install 2" coil spacers when I do 3" lifts. Always let's the jeep sit even...not nose down. I personally like it leveled out front to back but just my two cents

Leveled is the best.

My kit came leveled though, so I didn't have to add anything. Is it just an issue with 3 inch lifts?

Have had seen with both. But while having the front apart and 50 or so bucks for the spacers, I always get it done from the get go
