XR suspension mods

[Easttnrhino]

I think I have got about all you can get out of a stock rubicon XR suspension with a few mods. Front3/4” spacer for more space between front bumps that come lower from factory on XR, longer front shocks to get max droop. Rear bump extension taken off, and rear sway bar disconnected.

Might want to check swaybar . Looks close to inverting. Might also see if spring is loose at your full droop.

They tested articulation with and without the rear swaybar connected in the below video. It actually did better on the ramp with it still connected.

Have you watched and listened to that video.

Ya but it was a while ago. Not saying it’s gospel, just food for thought.

I put longer shocks and taller springs. More flex and rides better. I left bumpstops alone as I want to run 37s and keep the factory fenders.

What specifically did you go with, if you don’t mind? How much height did it add? Thx

3.5” Rock Krawler Front springs (due to heavy bumper and winch), 2.5” Rock Krawler rear springs, Metal Cloak Pro Alignment brackets and now just waiting for front track bar. So total
Lift is about 2.5” over Stock Rubicon, or 1” over XR.

A buddy just put AEV 2.5” and Falcon SP2 3.3 on his 392XR, he’s 2” over stock running 38s. Steel bumpers, SOT, no winch.
