The '22 is the Sarge Green, 500 miles on it - so the question is the 2022 Rubicon is roughly 1.25" taller at the bottom of the rock rails (and everywhere else). Same tires, same basic build except he has the V6/etorque and I have the normal V6 with a manual. So......is it just because the springs haven't sagged yet or something else?

That's an interesting observation. I didn't have both vehicles to measure side-by-side, but bought a 2021 two-door Rubicon. I spec'd a 2022 exactly the same, except the differential gearing, and when the 2022 came in it looked substantially taller. Everyone that saw the 2022 thought the same thing, but I have no reason to think they actually were since I never measured the 2021. When I say they were spec'd the same:

Two-door, manual transmission, 3.6L, Alpine stereo, tow package; that's it. That was all I got on both.

The 2022 appeared to be at least an inch taller.

I answered your FB thread too.

Check with Benny here with Allmoparparts. Give him each vin number and he’ll give you the spring part numbers that each was built with so you can compare.

I just bought a 22 rubi and it is an inch taller than my 19 rubi.

Who can I send the Vin #'s to so that we can check the springs?

I actually prefer the 2019 ride height.

Same exact options on both.
