Damn you only have 3 pucks in there too, you should throw in a 1” spacer or get some different springs. I tried to look for different springs and I only found skyjacker that had a diesel specific 3.5” dual rate spring similar to metalcloak. I think they were just under $200. I had already ordered the teraflex leveling kit because I originally was gonna use that to doctor up my stock suspension that bottomed out. I got it from Amazon so I knew I could return it if it didn’t work out. The teraflex kit was only $99 on Amazon. The spacer would go on top of the spring isolator on your spring and lift that up 1” so you would gain 1” of uptravel and I think it would definitely help you out. The teraflex comes with a 1” and seperate half inch spacer that you can stack for 1.5” or just use the 1” like I did.

Yes, I’ve been in close convo with MC. They are suppose to come out with diesel specific spring in less than two months. If that doesn’t work out I’m going to throw in the one inch spacers and MC bump stops. Def more weight than the gasser though!

I'm seeing springs for the JT Diesel from Evo, anyone taken a look at them yet?

Looks like metal cloak dropped the diesel specific springs today on the low

So is that a heavier spring rate or a 1" taller spring? I'm sure they will tell you what you want to hear.

Higher spring rate and “beefier coils more for the Overlanding crowd”

Ready to ship in 30-60 days just waiting on springs from manufacturer. Could be a lot sooner. Will be specific to gladiator diesel for the overlanding type crowd. Thicker springs to eliminate sag and a higher spring rate to compensate.

I decided to go with the Evo Mfg JT Diesel Enforcer Overland Plus Stage 4 kit. I have a pair of coils already sitting in the garage. Will report back. Interested to see the Metalcloak stuff, I was really interested in their stuff. I might have a bit of FOMO right now...

I just picked up the mopar lift.
Want to keep factory wheels and not have to use spacers.

I have FOTR. (Fear of tire rub)
Seems most with the mopar lift had zero issues. Aftermarket, had rubbing.

Seems the rub on a control arm might not happen until 37s? Dunno.

I’m happy on 35s for now.

I want to eventually do this exact thing to mine. 2" with 35s on stock rims. But it looks like you're already on a Rubicon, not sure how that would work with my Willys.

how long did you have to wait on your lift? I've been waiting 2 months now.

3 days? Maybe 4?

McKinney Jeep in Texas seems to get lots in. Their website sells below msrp.
