Leveling Kit for 2-door Badlands (after adding adding winch and bumper)

[Fillups]

Hi all,
I have a 2-door Badlands ordered with the steel capable bumper. I recently removed that to add the JCR Vanguard bumper (steel) and Warn Zeon 10-S winch (from the FP kit, but used the winch only). I don't know exactly how much heavier the JCR bumper is, probably 2x the OEM capable bumper weight - very stout. I didn't take great "before" measurements, but with the bumper and winch installed, the front end dropped around an inch more than the original "rake" look. Currently the top center of the front flares are about 1.75" lower than the back flares.

I don't have the budget currently to do new shocks all around, and the Bronco only has 22K miles, so planning to get another year or 2 out of the Badlands shocks then will reassess. My 1.75" height diff (front to rear) is empty, so I think a 1.25 or 1.5 leveling kit is about right. With some gear in the back, it should be just about level. The local shop I'm working with suggests the Ready Lift 1.25" kit (link below). Anyone know of a reason to avoid this one? If so, what do you suggest?

gjet new front springs or a coler lift will help ome makes a shim kit to add under the spring and top hat that would be the cheapest way to do it

… not sure what year you have but some said they just use the ford springs from a 2.7l.

The current thread on detail breakdown of SAS springs list this spring for his 2.7l.

I not sure why, (ford change or supply issues) my 25 BL 2d came with a 2.7l spring.
