JL Sport Vs Rubicon suspension differences?

[Fuel Fire Desire]

holy moly did it settle any? lol i would be sorta upset if i ONLY wanted like 2-3 lift and got 5

A bit. I added a 3/4” spacer up front knowing the bumper/ winch would sag it eventually. I haven’t measured recently, and added 35’s so measuring now is moot. But I’d bet it settled about 1” front and rear, with the spacer still keeping it level. In the end I got exactly what I wanted with the spacers, and LCAs. I’ll probably keep the same lift when I swap axles too, and probably stick with 35’s. They stuff just about perfect, only rubbing under full stuff/ droop with steering input on the fenders, but Rubi front fenders will fix that.

Just for reference. I got a rubi suspension on my sport. the rubi had metal bumpers, hardtop, towing package and it was a 2 dor. my sport had a hardtop, and it is a 2 door.

I gained about 1.8 inches on the front and almost 2.5 inches on the rear (because of towing package).

Apparently YMMV depending on the 2 vehicles involved. I got springs off of a JLUR with 3.6 engine and cloth top. On my JLU with 3.6 and hard top I gained 1.5" front and 2" rear.
