Diesel springs, front only on JLUR 3.6 gas

[MyDaughters20JL]

Looking to eliminate the forward rake on my '20 JLUR & wondering if I put a set of springs from a diesel on the front if it would remove the rake without putting my JLUR into a "carolina squat" stance?

got the rough country 2.5" spacer lift, but unlike some lifts that go more in the front to level the jeep, this wa a 2.5" front and rear: thinking diesel springs are the answer?

Also interested in this. After adding a winch there is a droop I would love to eliminate. Not interested in a lift as of now.

Curious as well.

JLURD take off suspension hard top, Steel bumper, towing package got me 2.5in lift all around. 3in if I'm running without doors and a roof.
Might give you some squat.

so much squat that it wouldn't likely be overcome by the addition of my winch?

...just hoping that with my steel bumpers (that I neglected to mention...duh!) and winch, that the weight might be enough to remove any minor(?) squat attributed to the diesel front springs

No, you should be fine. Keep in mind, I lifted a sport with the diesel suspension and got those numbers. The bumper and winch will weigh down the front.

perfect: now for the correct number(s) ....
from the spring matrix chart, with the exception of the sahara which looks like it runs a 666/667 combination, it APPEARS as though both the front springs are 667's....or is this going to throw the side to side lift off & best to use a 666/667 combination?
in other words, what is the stiffness/height difference between the 66's & 67's?

The springs are corner specific because of the weight distribution in the jeep. The passenger side runs heavier than the driver I think. They're the same length but one should be slightly stiffer

That’s always been my understanding, but looking at the spring chart, it lists a 667/667 combination for the front?

 

[rts4714]

I just checked mine and they're both 667

Diesel springs are not corner specific. They are the same size. A diesel is more balanced in the front.

I have Evo diesel 2.5" rear springs on my Jeep JLU sport 2.0t handles the extra weight pretty well so far

So any info or tips from someone that’s done this already would be appreciated lol I just got a lift off a guy turns out it is for a diesel Rubi and mines a 3.6 Rubi should I swap the rear springs around and the part numbers are different for each corner according to this mopar install sheet https://www.allmoparparts.com/docs/77072396AF-2022.PDF

I have diesel front springs with winch and metal bumper. Looks and works perfect.
