Did you do the work yourself or have a shop do it? Looking at picking up a Rubi Take-off suspension for $100 off of Craigslist.Installed the Rubicon takeoffs springs and shocks on my 2018 JLU sport. The Rubicon springs numbers are 68253591aa, 68253592aa Rear and 68253661ac and 68253662ac Front. Along with the springs and shocks I also installed the Mopar 2 inch lift lower control arms number (82215398AB) and a Daystar 3/4 inch lift kit (DAYKJ09181BK) I also installed Rusty’s front track bar brace (RC-TB7500-JL). The change out took about 5 hours. I also had the jeep realigned and with the new lower control arms the caster came in at 6. The Jeep tracks straight and steers very well. Here are the height numbers before and after the install.
Before Right front 37 1/8 Left front 37 1/8 Right rear 37 1/2 Left rear 37 5/8
After Right front 39 1/4 Left front 39 1/4 Right rear 39 1/4 Left rear 39 3/8
A 2 inch lift using mostly Mopar parts. $200.00 for the Rubicon takeoffs, $50.00 for the Daystar 3/4 lift kit, $70.00 for the lower control arms and $100 for the track bar mount for a total of $425.00 plus $85.00 for the alignment.
Also wondering what the benefit is of the track bar brace?
