Was under my 2019 JLUR and saw a cracked washer on my rear driver side shock.
Stock, never messed with suspension.

checking unusual tire wear

should I be concerned?

Well can't say I have seen that before. Ask nicely at the parts counter for a washer. Get the specs to replace it and if they want to charge for it politely decline. Buy at your nearest hardware store for 14 cents or whatever the cost is. Happy wrenching

If I recall correctly, its actually a flange nut. So basically the washer is attached to the nut.

I'm no expert but if I saw that on my rig it would not concern me nor prompt me to replace it.

That’s a flange nut not a washer. I wouldn’t be worried, but I’d replace when you get a chance.

Ha, I’ve just got the Mopar Lift instructions bookmarked and there’s a page that lists all the factory fastener and torque info on it.

It’s amazing how handy it is when instructions include required socket size and torque specs. It saves crawling out from under the jeep to grab tools and chase down torque specs. Always make the install go much smoother.
