Installing Rubicon take offs (ride hight)

[The Fixer]

@The Fixer, just so I understand, the 2 door felt twitchy at highway speeds after LCA swap? Surprised to hear that as everyone recommended them for any type of lift, or adjustable.

No, my two-door was twitchy ~before~ the LCA swap. Sorry if that came across incorrectly. I got a decent amount of lift with the 60/61s up front with the 2.0T...it was taller than my son's 3.6 JLUR with the same springs. I drove it for about a year and then I scored a set of slightly used Mopar lift arms from a fellow Jersey member and swapped them in. The difference was noticeable, it's much better on the highway and not as twitchy in crosswinds.

We put 59/60s on my wife's JLU Sport with the 3.6 and IMO it doesn't need the LCAs. It's heavier and slightly lower than mine. It tracks well and doesn't wander at highway speed.

The day is here to put the Rubicon springs and shocks on. Also new longer LCAs came in. The taller springs go on the passenger side, correct?

Well they went on that way. So it is what it is.

You chose wisely.

Was outside messing around with my son's S197 project Mustang otherwise I might have been able to respond earlier.

Thanks. Got the front done and new longer LCA on. They aren’t kidding about that LCA torque. Son and I getting up bright and early to do the rear.
Truly surprised how much lift this gives. Sure it will settle out but about 2” right now.
