OK. My 2c worth.
I did the Cape when I first bought the JKU Rubi (2007). Went up on the OE shocks.. they were OK but the springs caved in with the extra weight etc. Put in ARB springs and shocks with 2" lift. ARB shocks were good but firm but the springs were shite.
Since then I have run 2" lift via Lovell springs F&R .. HD at rear plus rear airbags and Bilstein shocks all round.
This combination has proven itself off and on road. I have been all over with this set up without an issue and pretty comfy too. Eg., Kimberley, Gibb River Rd; Anne Beadle track; Great Central Road; Sandy Junction Track; Mount Augustus, all around Alice Springs, Pilbara, Gascoyne etc etc.
