It is, I looked up the kit by part number on the mopar site, it showed two hours for install. I got them to do 300 for that. They messed up taking forever, ie 2 days to install the lift, and comped the alignment.
wow..ok they quoted me 750 to install lift.

I just got my Mopar 2" installed today on my JLUR. Running 37X12.50/R17 Cooper SST PRO tires on the factory rims. I ended up adding on 1 3/4 inch spacers from Spidertrax and the Rough Country rear tire bracket. No clearance issues at full lock or anything. Actually not even close. It has been rainy like crazy but once that slows down I will try and get some pictures and a good flex shot to test how that works out. As far as gains, at the fenders it shows an increase of 4.5 inches.
Nice! Any pics??

I’m wondering if this bowing issue is a “where they were manufactured issue” ? I’m sure with the issues they will narrow it down.

I really like them so far. Much quieter and better ride than my 35x12.50R20's Nitto Trail Grapplers I had on my Sierra Denali.
