Thanks, he won't part it out either =/
Not worth the drive over the hill and back

Hey Nyles, cover the freight and you can have some of my lift take-offs. They saw maybe 1,000 miles at best before I lifted. Call me a hoarder but I kept the springs, shocks and linkages for no real reason other than to help a fellow Jeepster out if need be. They’re in the corner of my garage so it’s not like they’re in my way. As others have said, springs and shocks will do the trick.

Here's my install thread if you haven't seen it, post #4 is for the Mopar lift LCAs, nice addition if you want to get your caster to a better (and safer) place
@VKSheridan nice offer to the guy, way to pay it forward!!!

Awesome write up and your Jeep looks great!
I am still trying to make sure the springs and the front shocks I got are going to actually help me out. I would hate to pay to have them all installed and it really be basically the same stuff I have on already!

In hindsight I see that I overpaid for the parts and should've remembered the "Buy once, Cry once" motto!

I might hang on to the shocks and springs and try to sell the other parts or just give them to someone who needs or will use them.

I'm looking at doing a Rubi take-off lift on my JLU sport. Are all of the JLU suspension parts (shocks/springs) interchangeable? Also, from what I'm reading, if I get the Rubi springs and shocks and add a 1" puck I should get around 2.5", correct?

Also does anyone have a guesstimate of what kind of lift this would provide? 1-2"?

I did this swap on my 2018 sport JLU. There are lots of threads on this that were very helpful. I got about 1- 1/2" all around and it looks great. The key is the spring #'s. Jeeps that have a steel bumper and/or a hard top have the higher spring numbers which will give you more lift. I don't remember exactly but I think my fronts were 90 and 91. The spring numbers are absolutely critical.

I can’t find the spring numbers on the ones I got anywhere yet
