The kit for the diesel is out? It’s not going to be the normal kit as the diesel will be much heavier and use different springs. I honestly don’t know and didn’t see it upon a quick eBay search.

it’s not however many dealers have been using the 3.6L Mopar lift which is working fine for the diesel. I also did a quick search and sites like allmoparparts and other Mopar officiated websites that sell the lift list the 3.0 engine as compatible. I’m sure when Mopar releases the “official” life kit for the Ecodiesel it will most likely be different springs or different spring pads.

Guess you could always add a spacer up front if it squats too much. Good to know they are saying their compatible.

Yes I'm adding 3 inch spacer in the front according to a dealer I spoke to.

Well that seems excessive but I guess you’ll find out. I was thinking a 3/4 to 1 incher would get you back to levelish.

Well the dealer whose been installing the lift kit on the ecodiesels recommended it due to the extra weight of the engine. If you look on the Diesel Lift Kit thread a member already showed their rubicon and it’s leveled perfect.

In your post it says 3/4 inch spacer which makes way more sense. A 3 inch spacer would be outrageous.

Yeah 3/4 inch that’s what I put on the front of my JLUR after I installed the Ace stubby bumper and XRC 12,000LB winch it put it back to stock rake.

just finished installation myself and got 35 today. Not that hard. Based on measurements before and after before new tires it showed that I gained 3”. No idea how. Need to measure it with new tires now
