Re: input needed

They make several different size lift springs. You'll have to ask the donor which ones they are. Note that larger lifts are going to require additional mods to the transfer case, control arms, driveshafts, tracbars, etc..
I wouldn't even bother re-gearing unless you get into the 4.10 or lower range (numerically higher).

The rubicon springs will give you about an inch of lift if they aren't sagged. As for gears, 4.10s or 3.73's with an auto I think? I don't know auto's and gear ratios well though.
