How long did it take you? Did you just use a jack and stands or a lift. Looks great BTW.

Thanks!How long did it take you? Did you just use a jack and stands or a lift. Looks great BTW.
I did an amateur install review of the (original) RC 2.5 lift here: https://www.jlwranglerforums.com/fo...ep-suspension-lift-kit-2018-wrangler-jl.4411/How long did it take you? Did you just use a jack and stands or a lift. Looks great BTW.
Here is the Mopar 2" lift kit post-installation alignment info...this is what I gave to my tire shop mechanic after I installed the RC 2.5" lift. Hopefully this helps other folks either in DIY alignment scenario or to provide their alignment shop folks.I've never had to pay someone to align a Jeep. All you can do is adjust toe in. You can do that yourself with a tape measure.
I don't see any bowing in their drawing.Here is the Mopar 2" lift kit post-installation alignment info...this is what I gave to my tire shop mechanic after I installed the RC 2.5" lift. Hopefully this helps other folks either in DIY alignment scenario or to provide their alignment shop folks.
yeah, note their drawing has no real Jeep on top of those coil springs...maybe that is how they tested 'emI don't see any bowing in their drawing.
Thanks for the info. Again it looks great.Thanks!
It took me 2-3 hours, but I have a lift and have lifted several Jeep's. One thing I did that the instructions don't call for is loosen all the control arm/track bar bolts then torque them back down once it's settled on the ground. That way there is no bind on the bushings when it's lifted. Just make sure you have a torque wrench that goes to 190lbs. The JL lower control arm bolts are now larger and require that much torque... On the JK they were 125ft/lbs
Looks great! I did the same lift on my bright white last week. Very pleased.So it went on today! I’ll put better photos up soon elsewhere. My dealership has a full service center, so I was able to get it done at work. Took him 2.5 hours to install.
No but the rough country 2.5 sst bows just as bad....Practically rubbing the bumpstopI don't see any bowing in their drawing.
Looks great. BTW spacer lifts don't settle. So what you have right now won't settle like springs.Here we go - RC 2.5", 285/70/17 Nitto Terra Grappler G2, 17" American Racing Bajas. Im sure the lift has settled by now, and I used the Mopar 2" Alignment instructions provided above. :D
