Honestly, save your sanity and just spend the $200 for a set of adjustable front lowers. You can get caster pretty well with a digital angle finder doing it yourself
Your probably right, just trying to save $, I’ll see what dealership says next week and hope they will do the right thing. Thanks to all on this site, you guys are incredible.

Definitely not the Mopar Lift LCAs :facepalm:
If they are paying then have them install the ones that go with your lift. unbelievable...

I suggest just go the route Rob mentions above and get some adjustable LCAs now and be done with it.

I hear you. I’m just a massive pessimist with dealerships. They’re worse than ever before here in Illinois.

Hey John, if you can’t get anywhere with your dealership and need a hand, just holler at me. We can get you dialed in in a couple hours.

To be honest you will see more like 3.5" lift on a Sport. Even Rubicon folks are seeing more than 2" of lift. If you install Mopar lift LCAs you will still be under recommended caster, so get a decent set of adjustable LCAs.
do you think driveshaft needs to be replaced too with the mopar lift kit on my sport JLU

Depends on use but I believe you will be fine with stock.

As long as you use the shocks that comes with the kit, you’ll be ok . It’s not the lift height, it’s the extended length of the shocks that determines if you need aftermarket driveshaft.

I’ve heard with 2 dr wranglers, if you have enough lift the rear drive shaft will be in a constant state of pinch because it’s so short and it’s a good idea to replace it. Not sure if the mopar 2” gives enough lift to cause this, can anyone confirm or refute that?

I’ve only installed a couple Mopar’s on 2 doors, they both netted just under 3” . There are some on here that got closer to the advertised lift height on there 2 drs. IMO, 3” is max you should go on 2dr without addressing the driveshafts. Maybe check with @OnlyOne , he’s rockin the Mopar and 37s on his 2 dr.
