ARB Bumper and Winch Install ?
Current setup
01' XJ Ltd 4.5" RE 6130 w/ HD trackbar&bracket Adj. LCAs 31s Looking for advise. I have purchased a new ARB pre97 bumper and warn 9500 winch. Currently the rear end sits .75" higher then the front. I should install a spacer up front, but not sure whant size. Also I have the CA drop brackets to be installed. Thanks http://www.creekmore.ca/creekxj

Only advice I can give you is what I did. With my 5.5 kit the rear was slightly (maybe .5") higher than the front. When I put my BPI bumper & 9500 on I added a 1.75" spacer (from my BB) and it's almost perfectly level now, maybe a tad higher in the front. I'd imagine your ARB would be heavier than my BPI so with a 1.75" spacer hopefully it will sit just right.

Yeah, a 1.75 spacer should be fine, maybe a tiny bit diffrence but not really noticeable.
Of course, you could always get adjustable coil over spacers. They are adjustable from .75" to about 2.75" However after spending as much as you did for a bumper and winch, a 200 spacer probably isn't in the budget.
