What Control Arms should I buy?

[Fire Burns]

So with this you and everything else stock for now, huge returns on my investment?

Honestly, Metalcloak level of quality probably not neccessary if you plan to keep everything else stock. I've been extremely happy with mine though as they will improve the ride, even on a stock rig, due to superior bushing design

I have a set of EVO track bars that I will make you a hell of a deal on. Brand new in a box Front and rear.

Everything is stock on my jeep right now, will this improve anything?

I'm not sure maybe someone can chime in and answer for us.

I’m no expert but I’d say it probably isn’t necessary.

I have read where people claim the fixed lower control arms that come with their 2” Mopar lift improve handling by shifting the caster angle a bit. If I were stock I’d probably just look for someone selling a set and call it a day.

In your case, since you have a Rubicon (stock I assume), it should help with the straight line tracking, nothing else. The arms from the Mopar lift made a noticeable difference in how my Rubicon drives.

This is gold! I dont know if this was for me or what but WOW! Im going to save up for this for the end of the year.

Don’t waste your money on that.

Yada yada, Core 4X4 buy once cry once plus any color you want without the 70's tacky gold.

There really is no need to lift a JL Rubicon unless you are going to larger diameter tires (37inch). In most cases you can run 35” tires with no lift or maybe some spring spacers (1/2”-3/4”) with 35” tires.
Core 4x4 makes some really nice control arms.
Clayton off road makes some control arms with duel durometer bushings which are similar to the factory control arm bushings but far superior in quality. These will provide a very good on highway comfort ride also providing great off road flex. Check them out, this might be perfect for your needs.

My Jeep: 2020 4 door Rubicon with 3.6 Gas Auto.
What I am doing: Mopar 2" lift kit for Rubicon.
What is recommended in the Wrangler forums: " you'll want to install an adjustable front 'control arm' with that lift kit.'

Question: For those Jeep owners who have done the "Mopar 2 inch lift kit" (keeping the stock wheels and tire size) what 'control arm' manufacturer (make/model) did you go with, and what has been your ride/steering experience after the install ? Any issues afterwards?

Pretty sure the kit has to be installed by the dealer to retain the warranty. Was that your plan?

I'm not saying not to get a lift - but if you don't need it, why bother right now? You can just add a winch and some good recovery gear to get out of most situations. Stock JLURs have successfully made it down the Rubicon trail with just that setup. It doesn't sound like you're planning anything near that difficult.

Keep in mind that some Jeep owners get a lift, then they find they need to add all these other components, not included in the lift kit. Then if they have any steering issues, they start chasing problems and throwing more money into more parts. It can happen. Just so you're prepared...

can happen??? Lol that’s hilarious... it definitely happens

Budget $2,500 for a lift.

Once you are done and you've bought all the extra stuff and the Jeep drives well you will have enough left over for a 6 pack.
