I used the Zone bump stop extenders J5201, front only, and Rubicon Express Shock Extensions, also front only. Nothing other then Rubicon springs and spacers in the rear.. My lift details are in this thread - but after the lift and with the longer LCAs my caster was 5.5 (L) and 5.3 (R). I...
My advise is not to ask for any of these! None are as good as just targeting a discount of 7% off invoice. Let the dealer figure out how to get to that target.
On the front, I got 3.4" of lift from the Synergy 2" coils and isolators. I also did use 2" Zone Offroad bump stops and the longer OEM end-links and LCA's from the Mopar 2" kit.
On the rear, I got 2.15" of lift from the Rubicon springs + .75" spacers
My front was 1.5" higher then my rear, so if you are the same you would only want a 1.5" front spacer (with shock extensions) to level-off a rubicon spring swap.
However, I really don't see any reason to use Rubicon front springs. You can find superior aftermarket options for under $200. All...
Your not gonna be any more level with the 2" kit or the Rubicon take-off then you are now. I also wanted to do a lift and level on my Sport, I went with Synergy 2" coil springs in front and .75" Terraflex spacers + Rubicon Springs in the rear. This brought the front to rear rake differential...
I'm interested in the tow hooks if you still have them.
FYI- Delta cargo is offering some crazy discounts to ship freight via air. You can pretty much ship anything of any weight same day for $95 domestic airport to airport.
They put the stock status directly on the website product page.
If it's out of stock at Quadratec, it's probably out of stock everywhere. In my experience, they are more transparent then most with their stock status and delivery dates. Many resellers are struggling with stock...
I used these fogs from amazon. They worked out great and are LED, definitely recommended and go used to save some cash. No reprogramming needed.
However, I later came to find out you can just buy the brackets to adapt the sport fogs. This is the cheapest option and keeps them halogen. The...
I put a few thousand miles on my Stage 1 frankenlift and decided I needed to take it a bit further and add a few more parts missed during the first lift session.. My objective for stage 2 was to install an Overland bumper and retrofit LED fogs, plus take-off Rubicon Fox shocks. Picked up all...
On my way too...
Here I am at up on the lift as they were buttoning things up.
Here is a pic of the front final geometry with all upgrades in place
With the old JKU wheels loaded up in the back (they would later sell quickly), here was how it looked after the initial install of the...
Next mod.... Was lucky enough to find a local forum member selling a set of take-off Overland running boards. Not exactly my first choice for running boards, but I couldn't pass up a local deal and the Sport just looks unfinished without some running boards bounding in those vacant holes.
It...
The next day after driving it home to NJ I immediately replaced the stock wheels. I had already owned a set of 2018 Smokey Mountain Wheels, bought them from the original owners as a take-off from his JKU and then ran them for a few thousand miles on my old WK2;
And a gratuitous pic of the...
I am running ProComp 7031 wheels with -6 offset and 4.75 backspacing. My 315/70/17 stick out about 1 inch beyond the end of my stock Sport fender. I do have issues kicking up dirt and rocks onto the side of the truck, but it certainly looks good stance-wise. If I could do it again I'd look...
The Origin Story. Purchased a 2020 Jeep Gladiator Sport from Rothrock Jeep in Allentown, PA on March 15. Actually found the vehicle using the Rodo leasing app and couldn't pass up the 76% RV on the base model Sport. Original MSRP was $38,.180 with only a few options including automatic...
It's definitely a budget option, and from a Chinese manufacturer, but I compared it side by side to stock and it's the same quality, if not slightly better (and adjustable). The shop I used had no problems getting it lined up, but it was a 2 man crew, one under and one measuring. I've got...
Just a heads-up that Amazon is now offering the Poison Frog adjustable track bar for $99. I used this with my setup, at it's shortest settings, but it has been performing well.
Sharing some pics of my Overland bumper retrofit on my base Sport.
Project started after install my lift because taking off the Sport bumper fender wings exposes the fog lights to the elements. I sourced the Overland bumper from another forum member and it included all required parts, trim...
