I have a 2010 Patriot limited trial edition.

It's my adventure vehicle. I have a big 4 bike bike rack on it and a Yakama Sky box. when it is loaded for bike trips. 4 bikes and Adults + gear I drag my mud flaps and some time hitch. Also driving at night on coming traffic thinks I have my brights on.

1. I'm looking to get a lift 2 1/8 from rocky road's
2. should I get stiffer springs or a auto leveling kit for when I am weighed down I don't drag and my light shine properly
3. I want new light LED's is there a system that I can manually adjust my light while driving ?

Thanks in advance.

With having 2010, I'd recommend getting Stu coils instead of RRO. You would kill two birds with one stone: you will get a lift and stiffer springs to help you with sagging.

All bias aside, I'd tend to agree. ^^^

Without the stiffer back springs, it'll still sag when loaded and the problem with the headlights being too high will probably come back.

What is meant by Stu coils. How will I get a lift and stiffer springs with just coils ? sorry i'm not into all the lingo yet.

The springs are longer, which raises the Jeep further up. Also, with more coils than the stock suspension it increases the spring rate giving you a stiffer ride.

What Creation said. The coils are 2" longer compared to the stock springs. Below is the link to Stu's website. The price includes shipping to almost anywhere in the world.
