NOTE: I know its not to scale....just an observation

It looks great, but I have to admit I am a little disappointed, this minor difference does not justify $1500 (+ shipping and install assuming you do not do it yourself) for the MOPAR kit. Most of the height difference from the photo appears to just be largely from the tire difference. I plan on going 37s and sure they will fit with the 2" MOPAR, but once you start stuffing them off-road, it wont be enough unless you start chopping and adjusting some things IMO. Obviously the photo is not exactly even, so the very amateur measurements I did in paint are not to any exact scale....that minor difference just is not worth the $1500 to me. @Rock Krawler Suspension, "well.........we're waiting" lol :like::rock: cant wait to see what the aftermarket can do.

Much love for you guys at RK....just tell Bridgette to invoice me lol

315/70/17 duratracs measure 34.4 As I recall.
I had a typo ... I meant under 34". And yes, they were listed as 34.4 but they actually measured out to be a bit under 34" after mounting them.

If you do go with the Mopar Lift and get it installed by a dealer, is that the only way to keep your warranty on suspension honored if say something should fail.

Well, if you don't flash it, you'll just have to calculate that you're going 6% faster than what the speedo reads (Rubicon). Might be a pain, but the upside is that the odo will read 6% fewer miles...
Didn't Jeep say the computer automatically recalibrates for 35s on the Rubicon? I'm certain someone said that, and I'm pretty sure it was a Jeep rep

I highly doubt it will automatically recalibrate for anything. It will require a dealer to flash the computer. This is one of the worst JL rumors that has gained traction.

Anyone with 37s and the 2" lift, can you measure the distance from the ground to the bottom of the frame rails at the break over point? I'm trying to figure out what tire/lift combination you'd need in the JLUR to have at least the same under frame clearance as a JKUR with 3.5" lift and 35s.

This is a very interesting comparison. The Mopar lift doesn't seem to lift the advertised 2 inches..?

That's what it seems to me..looks like maybe an inch....$1500 per inch is a pill I'm not gonna swallow....I'd rather wait for aftermarket

We need someone to put a 2 inch Mopar left on a jeep and measure it before and after with stock tires… Who can take it for the team?

I'm guessing it's called a 2" inch lift based on what it nets on a Sport? Where's the game changer setup? lol
