I was told that it was a manufacturing defect ... there was/is supposed to be a drain at the back of the block to allow the oil to drain back into the pan. Really don't know if that's true or not. But steep inclines definitely cause some smoking, if you are at the incline for a bit (trying...
Not sure really. I'd guess .5 to 1 inch. The JLUR will be heavier so you should see a little bump in ride height by using its springs.
Hopefully someone that has done a similar swap will chime in with real world experience.
I think the suspension from a JLUR might be better. The gladiator will have a different spring rate in the rear coils cause it does truck things. Also, I'm not sure the control arms from the gladiator will work on the JL platform. The rear of the gladiator is more like a ram truck; it's not a...

This is the factory tailgate reinforcement for holding a larger tire on the tailgate.
Will also add the 2018-2021 JEEP WRANGLER JL OVERSIZE SPARE CARRIER MOUNTING BRACKET KIT - MOPAR - MOPAR (82215355AB) for another $25. It's used and the replacement snubbers have...

Were installed on my 2019 JLR.
$250 obo.
This is my experience too. I have a JLR and a JKUR. I was high centered all the time when the JKUR was on 35s. Never had issues with the JLR on 35s. Put the JKUR on 37s and getting up and over things was easier.
I think the 2 door is better for east coast wheeling since there are more trees...
