Got a Rubicon take off suspension with very low mileage on it to put on Sahara. Went to dealer to see about swap and they got all iffy on me about having to buy other new parts to accommodate it like brake lines and control arms etc.

is that BS or no?

And thought all I had to do is swap springs and shocks. Everything else the same????

It’s BS. Just do your swap. Everything else is the same.

Can be done easily in your driveway. I did the same thing with my 15 Sahara JKU and got some lift out of it also

Subscribed. I’m very interested to hear how much lift you get on your Sahara.

Subscribed, thinking of doing the same. Don't know if the .75" gained is really worth it

Same here. Was hoping it’d be more but it seems to be 0.75” on Sahara and 1.5” on Sport.

For 0.75”, a leveling kit would be preferred.
