I have a 12 JKU. Daily driver for now. In the future,it will be a toy. I don't do any kind of extreme offroading, mainly two tracks around my northern Michigan cabin. My question is: I tow a 900lb trailer back and forth up north, w/ a 700lb 4 wheeler on it. (Along w/ hunting & camping gear in the cargo bay, and on trailer)

I don't have a lift as of yet. Is there a rear coil spring set for a NON LIFTED JK, that I could bolt on to increase rear towing capacity?

Cool. Just seems like there should be a coil over option...

There are. But they're insane. They're almost exclusively available as part of a lift, and they are quite pricey. I saw one that allows for 4.5"-6" of lift. For just a bit over $6,000. Not including installation...

THIS, as near as I can tell, might do what you want. It's not part of a lift kit, it is rear only. And it is $2,000. Plus installation.

I did not spend very long looking, but a cursory search would make it seem unlikely that you will find a good solution that won't put a serious dent in your piggy bank.
