Coil spacers or body lift?

I have a 2013 jku with a RK 2.5 flex system lift. Front adjustable track bar and rear track bar relocation bracket. I want to add just a lil more lift to it. Would it be better to use coil spacers or a body lift? I'm thinking adding just 1 inch more, to help with the weight of the heavy bumpers and winch. Any help would be much appreciated.

I would go with coil spacers over a body lift. Are you trying to lift all the way around or just the front? You're getting up there in height and might want to look into steering correction. Check and adjust your caster if needed.

I also have adjustable control arms if that helps.

I'm thinking just another inch to compensate for bumpers

I did 2.5 rk with 1" daystar spacers and I have steel bumpers around and exactly 3.5" of lift.

Correct me if I'm wrong but, can I correct the caster with adjustable control arms?

Yeah, if it needs it. I think that kit comes with an adjustable track bar if you need to re center your axle also

Yes I have the adjustable front track bar. Would I need a different relocation bracket for the rear track bar?
