I am running the full kit. I would recommend the Clayton 3.5" rear spring set. I CAT scaled before and after Alu-cab install and with out the interior built it is 500#. John (Darkhorse13) is 600# and yielded a 3" lift from the 3.5" rear springs from Clayton.

In about a month I will have my build out done. I am estimating an additional 200#. Installing a 16 gal water tank, Engel fridge, full Battle Born solar/lithium battery system install.

Any questions or details please ask or DM. Good luck.
Looking into a HD spring option right now myself and I've found the Dobinsons and Clayton HD 3.5" rear - triple rate so far. I'm curious if OME makes anything and can't find a spring chart for them. I ordered a 1.75" Synergy spacer for the time being and will switch out the taller and slightly heavier (20#) Ram 1500 spring for the 3" springs that came with my JKS kit, but that's not the long term solution, especially once I add a cap, the bed is loaded, and in time, the LRA tank. Not getting ahead of myself too much, but I'd guess that there's matching front coils available from each. These rigs with the ARB unit riding smooth and level have me a little envious I have to admit, drooling...?

We originally ran the clayton triple rate springs. But for our use they where not HD enough. We do have our set for sale for $300 dm if interested. We ended up going with the Dobson Extra HD springs and the Icon Rear Spring 1.5 spacers. We now can load up without use of airbags. But unloaded we are quite stiff.

other options AEV.

Lookin to stiffen the ride on my 2020 JTR, take some of the hwy roll out of it. Don’t want to install a lift past maybe 2ā€, concerned about the sway bar disconnect. Dual rate front and rear? Thanks

What does installing a 2.5 dual rate spring on the front of a 2020 Rubicon do to the sway bar disconnect?

Unfortunately not yet! We are considering working on smaller lifts, but nothing at the moment. Sorry man wish I could help.
How about now? Just wondering if I go with your 2.5 lift springs, do I need to add other components?. 2020 JTR with electronic disconnects..Thanks..

1.5" rear coils are on the way!

With either size kit, the minimum amount of components we recommend when lifting your vehicle is how we put together our Ride Right kit, which addresses the most crucial points of the geometry.

This is exciting news for the people who don't want a 2.5"+ lift and all of those supporting components, but need some more cargo/trailer capacity!

Can you share what rates will you be offering?

I will wait on your 1.5 springs, thanks.. How about dual or triple rate 1.5 springs? Just don’t want any lift..
Yes of course, we always stick with the way the springs are designed from the factory, so linear up front and triple rate rear for the JT!

This would be a great option for me as well. My wife is short but we also carry quite a bit of weight on our overland trips.
ā€˜Do you have an estimated release date yet?
