Factory lift's, how to distinguish if it has one?

Yes that looks like the Mopar 2 inch lift, also if it's a Jeep dealer their service dept should be able to punch in the VIN and tell you, if a Jeep dealer did the lift.

Looks like someone removed the rock rail and put on plastic sliders

I didn't notice that. Guessing the lift was to much for someone to easily get in and needed more of a step.

I’d recommend ordering from Gupton

Not familiar with that/them.

Go to the the vendor section in the forums and look them up.

So i have officially bought the 2020 Rubicon Gladiator as of yesterday! It has the mopar lift on it (all black Fox stickers).

Is this officially considered a 2" lift then?

Yes the only lift Mopar currently has for the Gladiator is 2 inch.

That’s lifted, for sure. Looks like the mopar 2” lift.

Is it used? Looks like a lot of spray from driving around. Possibly the GM, Sales managers demo?

I hope it’s a demo, Jeep gives the dealership like an extra $2,500 for them. This means you have an additional $2,500 in bargaining power.

My wife’s WK2 was driven by the dealer principle’s daughter. In addition to x% below invoice, we also got another $2k off.

I'm pretty skeptical about this. You're claiming your dealership has principles?

Here are the shocks from a Mopar 2" lift kit purchased about a month ago. Looks like the same ones. The Mopar kit comes with Fox 2.0 shocks, taller springs, longer lower control arms, and longer sway bar end links. It lifts Sports noticeably more than Rubis or Majaves. It does NOT come with any way of centering the axles, so I added a front adjustable track bar and a bracket for the rear track bar. Pretty impressed with the lift.

Heck - the lighter set of stock Rubicon springs will lift a typical Overland 1" so yeah, anything that lifts a Rubicon that much would likely do more on the others.
The heavier stock Rubicon springs usually lift an Overland over 1" - like 1.25" in some cases.

Those are the MOPAR side steps. I like them. Got them second hand for my wife's wrangler.

Looks like Overland "running boards" - my wife love's em with her knee issues.

I don't! I'm 6.5" so they are of no use for me and all they do is rub on my pants as i'm getting in. Once i find something to replace them with they'll be gone!

You probably know this since you have been into Jeeps before, but those steps are worth something to someone.

I have the GoRhino D6 running boards and they are worthless to me, They sit slightly higher than those Mopar ones you have so it's really awkward to get in. Only bought them for my wife and child so now I have the Rubicon rock rails taking up space in my garage.

Yup, just need to find someone with some stock rails in just as nice of condition that wants to do a swap

so now I have the Rubicon rock rails taking up space in my garage.

What kinda shape are they in, inquiring minds want to know?!

They are brand new. I took them off when I got my jeep to put steps on. I’m in Connecticut if you are nearby.
