Scrolling on Facebook and found 4XE Rubicon takeoffs I was just seeing if they would work on a 2018 JLU sport S, there is a couple 100 lb difference on the 2 and they are a few years apart, tryna lift on a budget and seeing if these 2 are compatible, lmk what y’all got for me.

How is that?!😂
I have a two door sport s freedom edition that I did a rubi 4xe takeoff suspension and 33” Falken tires on. Awesome inexpensive upgrade. Search @blnewt ’s “rubi suspension on 2 door” thread and get all the info you could ever need. 👍

I put Rubicon takeoffs on my Sport and gained 1.5" front and 2" back. This may be somewhat common, I've heard of other people having similar results and adding a small spacer in the front to even it out. You probably need to do something like this.
It might be hard for you to quantify what you need. If you can find a stock Rubicon then take some measurements and compare with yours. I was able to measure from fender down to ground for before and after. You wouldn't be able to do this because Rubicon fenders aren't the same as Sport fenders, you would have to find some other reference point.

I added 1/2" spacers in the front of mine and it leveled it out perfectly.

Did it level it out completely to where you add weight in the back and it looks to be sagging?

Yes, I can put a level on my rock rails now and the bubble is centered when I'm parked in my garage. Not sure how accurate that really is but it matches my eyeball.

And that’s good enough! Is that a Rino rack on your jeep? If so, what’s it rated for?

It's just a Mopar rack, not sure of the weight limit. I just got it to hold a small canopy.
