2 inch Mopar Bilstein Lift Kit on a 2024 Mojave - Questions

[ArcticDreadnought]

I would like to have this option put on my 2024 Mojave, but I'm worried if it would change the leveling that is already present on the Gladiator.

Would it retain its leveling or would there be other components required?

Just as it says the system will add 2” front and rear, that also includes suspension travel added to what’s already there, in theory and design. But how it will work with a Mojave? That remains to be seen. Why would you want to spend all that extra money? Why not buy a Sport, or even Willys then add the Bilstein there that would add more to what’s less than what’s in the Moyave, especially the hydraulic jounce bumpers that are unique to the Mojave.

Not sure about the Mojave, but I did the Mopar 2” lift with Bilstien shocks lift on my 22 sport s / max tow. It retains the OEM geometry. Which I, personally, prefer.
But unless your level is a spacer only kit, I would think you’ll have to figure something else out. The Mopar kit replaces springs, shocks, and sway bar links up front. And the same, plus, a set of long arms in the rear.

I did the Mopar 2" on my '22 JTRD, I added a 1" spacer on the front to take a little of the rake out. My lift came with the Fox 2.0 shocks though. All measured up, it ended up being closer to a 3" lift. I swapped the factory steering damper shortly after for the bigger matching Fox 2.0 damper, had it aligned, was ok. Blew out a u joint a couple weeks ago and had it at the dealer, they rebuilt the front axle and dialed in the alignment crazy tight. Basically drives itself now. I think I was out on the fringe of acceptable specs from the factory to start with.

The shocks are a downgrade from the stock mojave shocks. I'd buy lift springs and shock extensions or just get the AEV mojave 2" spacer kit that comes with everything you need.

Not sure if they even make a mopar lift for the Mojave. The front shocks on the Mojave have bigger bolts than all other models.

The same lift can be installed then buy different shocks nothing else is that different.

Exactly, just wanted the OP to be aware that the shocks won't fit.

Why would you buy an overpriced and incomplete lift kit and then not use the shocks that come with it? Several companies offer better kits without shocks or with shock extensions so you can run the mojave shocks. I believe you can get bushings for the larger bolts from fox so any kit with fox shocks can be run on the mojave.

The Mojave shocks would have to have extensions. Thats why I said that.
