Control Arms almost look stock, Is there a spacer on top of the coil? Any markings on the coil itself?

37x12.50x17 Open Country R/T Pros, brand new, sitting @ 35 PSI.

From center axle to bottom of fender 26-26 1/2" (quick eyeball test) front and rear with 7.5" between the top of the tire to the bottom of the fenders.

Some more info for the puzzle:


1) The truck is riding on Dirty Life 9310 Canyon Wheels in 17x9 with a -12mm offset wearing Toyo Open Country R/T Pro's 37x12.50x17 @ 35psi.

2) The front coils are black and have "340" in white stamped in them on the third coil from the bottom. The rear have "346" stamped in the same location.

3) The shocks are black with no markings. They have a long silver strut and on the end closest to the axle the have a weld completely around the bottom. They have the marking "021 166", "021 196", "7248" and the words "Caution: Do not heat or open"

4) The lower control arms are 1721 B on the rear and 2191 A on the front. They are black and square with no adjustment.

That looks stock with coil spacers. Did you try to get a proper look at where your coils are seated?

I agree that looks like it’s a spacer lift

I don’t think it’s rough country. They never had silver/grey sway bar links or black shock body’s.

By never I mean since at least 2021. I have bought from them 2 times, last time was 2021 on my Silverado. All their shock body’s are silver/grey.

Post a pic of the Jeep in a side profile as well so people can see how much space is in the fender wells between the top of the tire and the fender.

Looks like a cheap spacer lift.

That is a fuck ton of front bump stop extension. Do you even have any up travel? That has to ride rough.

The rear has zero additional bump stop.

Track bars are stock, control arms are stock.

Shocks aren't branded and are installed upside down.

Whatever it is, it's junk.

The coils look compressed and bowed out. The whole axle looks like it is shifted.
Idk about upside down. If that’s the case the red rubicon shocks would be upside down because the red part is the shock body and the black part is the boot that covers the shock shaft.

I don’t think it’s a spacer lift, usually you can see the spacer hanging out from under the coil housing on 2ā€-2.5ā€ spacer lifts…..My guess is RC, they just didn’t put the stickers on the shocks, (I don’t blame them)…. The shocks are likely Not upside down, a lot of companies have you run them shaft up on non-gas charged shocks…..

Shocks have been made to mount like that for several decades, that was the reason colored boots came out in the 80's... 😁 now when performance came into the picture shocks got flipped over for several reasons.
1 being tire clearance with the huge tubes bypass runners and reservoirs taking up space.
2 they learned unsprung wt was easier to control.

I agree with too much front stops

But, I am sick of hearing about every lift that costs less than $5k is junk, thats straight up bullshit...for uninformed folks what is junk and why?
