Anyone got the shock bolt torque specs handy?

There really should be a sticky with things like this...

Also of interest:

According to the official Jeep JL Wrangler Owner's Manual, the front shock absorber length on a standard Jeep JL Wrangler with a factory suspension system is approximately 20.55 inches, while the rear shock absorber length is approximately 22.44 inches.

I’ve just started hearing about ChatGPT. I guess I’m getting old.

Anyone know or have the specific spring P/N's for the 2.0L Mopar kit 77072430AB?

From the 'Jeep Suspension Calculator', it would be a subset of these:


JL Mopar Front 68414065AA
JL Mopar Rear 68414066AA
JL Mopar Front 68414067AA
JL Mopar Rear 68414068AA
JL Mopar Front 68414069AA
JL Mopar Rear 68414070AA
JL Mopar Front 68414071AA
JL Mopar Rear 68414072AA
JL Mopar Front 68414073AA
JL Mopar Rear 68414074AA

I work evenings, and after work before going to bed I "check my phone". I started reading this thread, and was up till half-past midnight reading the whole thing. Thanks for doing all the research work on it!

I've got a new 23 JLU Willys 2.0T with the XR package. I wouldn't mind lifting it just a tad using factory springs to put a little more space between the front bumpstop and pad (want less than a 1" lift front & rear). I need to check the tags on my springs to see what I currently have and go from there.

Yes, I know a spacer is an option too.

I was considering ordering the mopar lift springs and LCAs to see what they did as far as lift on my XR. You ever figure anything out on your end?

I went with a teraflex 0.5 inch spacer lift front and rear. Jeep was already level. I think it looks just right now with a total of 2" lift (XR starts with 1.5" lift). It put a little more space between the front bump stop. Next eventually will be Fox 2.0 IFP shocks. The teraflex 0.5 inch kit front and rear was only $50 or so, and a couple hours of my time.

I finished what Jeep started with the XR package... | Jeep Wrangler Forums (JL / JLU) - Rubicon, 4xe, 392, Sahara, Sport - JLwranglerforums.com

I can always change it out later if I want. But for $50 is was worth just experimenting with it.

Made this gif for another thread, thought it might go well here.

I noticed the info for a Rubicon 4xe is blank. Not sure if the following info is useful, but I just replaced the stock shocks and was surprised that the specs were exactly the same as the standard Rubicon shock measurements. Since the 4xe supposedly sits a little higher than the standard Rubicon, I was expecting that to translate to the shocks, but I guess not.

Who reordered all the shocks by brand in the Jeep Suspension Calculator? It's all "pretty" and shit, but now cross-shopping shocks in similar lengths is a PITA.

Sorry, that was me. Didn't realize it locked down the filter & sort options... it's back to normal now.

FWIW: you can download a copy and have access to filter & sort.
