Thank you for that. Numbers tell the interesting story.Since it wasn't discussed further... I know there's a lot of variances in the packages Jeep and the dealers end up selling that change things, but here are the numbers from the 2025 Jeep info:

I'm thinking the Mojave just has a higher front end than Rubicon. The tallest overall height is still listed as Rubicon.
Product Information
I wasn't able to say "it ABSOLUTELY ISN'T TALLER" - I had no grounds to go there, but in prep for buying a new JT - I was careful with measurements - all of them, as my plow requires different front mount brackets, probably hard to find, for vehicles that sit over 22" from the ground at a specific spot. My Overland JT sat at 22" and Rubicons sat there as well at that spot, Mojave measured on the dealer lot - about 1/8 to 1/4" higher but I figured I could live with that as the front would sink with the weight, especially Mojave.
I have noticed, comparing them side-by-side at the dealer lots the Mojave has less rake than most of the others. My Overland had a lot more rake and even the Sports and Rubicons have more rake than my Mojave - at least comparing them on the lot. And now in my garage, I'm convinced it sits at the same height but has less rake and that must be mostly in the front.
Looking at those numbers, there's not a huge difference in many of them Rubicon vs. Mojave, mostly the front or approach. And that makes some sense based on my uncalibrated eyes.
