Since the XR package includes a bit of a lift, does anyone know if the front LCA are the same as a non-XR Rubicon or are they the longer (I think by .25") Mopar LCAs used in their lift kit? Thanks!

The XR’s have standard length lca’s.
I just replaced mine with the Mopar longer lca’s. The Mopar lca’s are .25” longer which increased the caster on my XR by 1.2 degrees.
I can definitely tell the difference in the added caster, I can drive over the bridge to the island with one hand on the wheel comfortably. Yes you still feel the wind when going over the bridge, it drove good stock but I always felt like I had to drive with both hands on the wheel.

This is a good question. From what I've read on the forums, the XR has standard length arms. What has me questioning that were some posts I saw selling stock XR control arms on the forums. I saw at least two posts selling stock control arms but the part# listed were for the extended length. I need to crawl under mine and copy down the part# stamped on mine to see.

So what is the correct part# for the extended control arms?

Never mind the part number, just measure it while you’re under there…. 24” center to center of connecting bolts is stock arm, 24.25” Mopar lift arm….
