I need help. I have a 2019 JLU Sahara, 4dr, 2.0 with hardtop. Coils are 58/59 and 89/90. I bought Rubicon suspension from a 2019 Rubicon, 4dr, 2.0, hardtop and tow package without verifying coil numbers before purchase. I just looked at them since I am now ready to install and coils are 62/62 and 91/91. Same numbers for front and rear. Will this work or do I need to start looking for different a different Rubicon suspension.

Should be fine, coil numbers are good numbers for a higher lift. not having different #s for a left spring and right spring won't make much difference once installed, probably a bit different when you actually measure side to side, but to the eye they shouldn't look off.

Since you have the same motor and a hardtop you should get a good setup there :)

Thanks, that's good to hear.

You probably should get some longer front lower control arms too. Your caster is going to be too low with the added lift.

Cheapest way would be to get the Mopar front LCA's (for the Mopar 2" lift). They're about $30 each and will get your caster back to around 6 degrees.

Otherwise, some adjustable lowers would be a good option too, just more expensive.

Already bought the Mopar LCA's after reading some other posts, so at least I got something right.

You're good to go then. Should be a pretty simple install and your Jeep should handle pretty good.

Good luck!
