Pictures Please ! JLUR with Mopar 2" Lift & 35s

[Trauma PA]

I agree Dan, I love that kind of Kool-Aid! Same goes for my Mopar 2 inch. It was installed by a dealer that knew what they were doing! I’m sorry some people have problems with this lift. But I I am very satisfied with it. And also mine is barely above two inches. Axles are also centered, my jeep is heavy, especially on the front with a winch and components! I had originally lost 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch in front with stock suspension because of the winch. I got that amount back plus around 2 inches. Also I do not think all of these JL jeeps are set up equally from the factory. If they were we would not hear so much about steering issues on stock jeeps While other JL jeeps drive perfectly!

All good points. I've read somewhere that the reason the Mopar lift nets over 2" is because they anticipate Jeep owners adding heavier front and rear bumpers as well as a winch which in turn would drop the net height gained down to around 2." Also, there must be a difference between adding the Mopar lift to a Sport vs a Sahara vs a Rubicon.

I bought my new JL with the 2'' Mopar lift installed by the dealer.
It rides great !!!!

Which JL model did you buy?

My local dealer has a lifted Rubicon Unlimited on the lot with 35s. May swing on by and test drive and see how it compares to my Mopar lifted Sahara.

Yes, this has been my experience as well. I am constantly making micro adjustments to keep my Jeep steering straight down the road. I am also considering adding the Rock Krawler front and rear adjustable track bars. I'd be interested to hear if adding these components correct your tracking issues. I also netted more than 2" of lift. Not sure why Mopar continues to call this a 2" lift and why they didn't do a better job field testing the kit. It is definitely not a complete kit as the "kool aid" drinkers would lead you to believe. I installed my lift myself as I don't trust off road shops or the dealer's mechanics to do the same meticulous job as I did. The install was very straight forward. I am not totally dissatisfied with the lift but I do think it needs some tweaking and additional components and I do think there are better options out there.

I found the components that a guy from a shop spebs numerous hours trying to find the root cause of the Mopar issues. At the minimum it should be a front adjustable track bar and adjustable lower control arms. I also went with the rear adjustable track bar and relocation bracket to correct the geometry. I have a Rubicon and others who have sports and Sahara's may have different experience.

What kind of gas mileage are y'all getting wit 35's and 2 inch lift?

 

[Jeepin_Donnie]

Here's mine on 35s

 

[Jeepin_Donnie]

Then on 37s. It's my daily driver and I wheel it hard.

New to the forum so I apologize because I know this topic has been talked to death. I need some experienced advice as my 2019 JLUR 3.6L 6 speed is on order and I was planning on installing a Mopar 2" with 35s.

Yes, I prefer the look of the 37s BUT this will be my daily driver (~120km/day highway) so concerned about the ride, handling, road noise, need to regear - don't care about fuel economy, tire wear.

SO without getting highjacked by pictures of 2" lifts and 37s can people please post some pictures of their Rubicons with 35s and lifts. Does this actually exist?

1) for those that do have this setup are you happy with your choice of 35s?
2) those with 37s can you give some feedback on the above concerns as a daily driver?

Thanks!

JLUR SAHARA with 2 inch Mopar Lift with 35/12.5R20 TOYO. Rides and drives great!

Well I have not installed the Mopar 2 lift yet, but did get my 35/12.5/17's on. Honestly wish I would have went with 315/70/17's, but I am ok with the 35's. Don't like the spare situation, and that the tires sit a total of 3.5" outside the fenders, appx 1.75" of tread past the fender. BUT the ride is better, the steering bullcrap issue is better just with the tire change. Nitto Ridge Grapplers exceeded my expectations, no noise, better ride, better handling than KO2's. Lift next.
