Mopar lift on Rubicon?

[TerraJL]

I have a 2023 4 door Rubicon. I’m considering the Mopar lift. Does anyone know how much this lift actually raises a stock Rubicon up? And, if so, mind replying with photos? I’m thinking about this lift and maybe just some 35s for now. Would love to see Mopar only lifts below!

One other question, how are the shocks on the Mopar lift?

Thanks!

I have a 2021 JLURD and recently had the Mopar lift kit with the BIlstein remote reservoir shocks installed. I gained about 2.5 inches in the front and 2 inches in the rear.

This is the route I am thinking of going. Appreciate the OP’s thread. Nice bonus is that with your picture, I can see exactly what mine will look like after the lift.

How is the ride with Bilstein compared to the original setup? Did you go through the dealer or a 3rd party shop? If you don’t mind me asking what was the total cost all said and done? Would you go with this set up again, or go a different route in the future? Sorry for the long list of questions.

I was planning on installing myself, but if the cost to have it installed is negligible then the time saved is occasionally more important than money spent.

Here is our 22 JLUR with Mopar lift and 315/70 KO2s. I had closer to 3 inch lift in front and roughly 2.5 in back. The Fox shocks ride great. You will have to put adjustable track bars on as the kit doesn’t include them.

Great looking ride! I see you are in Central Pa. I live in Tucson. We moved here from Exton, PA in 2015 to begin our permanent vacation.

I had the lift kit installed by my local Jeep dealer (not the dealer I purchased my Jeep). The lift kit was $2,095 and installation was $990. When I made my decision I had another lift in mind but the dealer had just done some work for me which really wasn't under warranty and was only about 1 hour labor and they did not charge me so I decided to purchase the lift kit from them and have them install it. I also took into consideration that should I have a problem with the lift kit - they would be responsible and I'm in my mid 70s so the installation cost was easier to swallow. They had my Jeep for about a day and a half.

My perspective is the ride is better than stock both on road and off-road. That said, shortly after I had the lift kit installed I bought the Teraflex wheels and put Toyo Open Country RT Trail 35" tires installed. On cold mornings the Toyo's compare to the KO2s are a little stiffer until I drive a couple of miles.

At this point I wouldn't change a thing and am satisfied with the way it rides bot on road and off road.

Thanks for the feedback! Funny enough, I’ve been in the military for the last 29 years and first place I was stationed outside of PA was Tucson AZ. Loved it out there. Would go back, but my wife and kids are happy here and don’t want to move. Interestingly enough, she’s from FL and hates the cold, yet here we are ?‍.

Awesome! Are you on 35s in this photo?

Nice! Looks like the Mopar kit got you about, what? 3”?

Technically. 315/70s are like 34.5 but yeah.
