We sold our gladiator, we no longer need these parts.
Everything was purchased new in 2023, used one year, stored inside since.
All parts are located in Southern Utah and are available for pick up only.

I’m installing RC M1 Shocks on a 2022 Willys Gladiator.
The lower shock bushing is the correct width, but the upper shock bushing is way different.
My upper shock mounts are 2.75” wide.
The stock shock bushing is not gonna swap over to the RC shock; the eyelets are significantly smaller on...
I’m narrowing down by suspension set up for a 2022 Willy’s gasser.
The vehicle will see mostly pavement duty, some towing, and light over landing.
I’m mostly interested in lifting the front end to gain tire clearance and to reduce rake.
Q’s:
Do I need the entire leveling kit if I’m just...
I'll be curious to see how the leveling lift springs change the ride, RC didn't think I would need brackets for caster; I didn't notice any change in the JLU though the steering seemed lighter. Brackets are pretty cheap and easy.
That's exactly what I was wanting to know. Did you change anything else when you swapped springs?
I'm thinking about getting the RC leveling kit with front springs and shocks, that's what I had on my JLU and it rode just right.
It's my wife's daily driver, so she really doesn't want it to be...
Not the wheels and tires, those I swapped from the JLU. Tire pressures 35 psi. It does ride a little better with ATs than thr MTs, but still very firm in the backend.
I was thinking of just getting some shocks, the RC N3 ($200) what I had on the JLU, if that helps then I’ll add the leveling kit...
Thats what I want!
So if it's no the springs, then maybe it's the shocks?
Anyone got part numbers for shocks and springs for the Overland?
I called Jeep and they said I needed a VIN to compare.
I keep reading about the Overland being the "pavement princess", the Willys is definitely not that supple of a ride.
The guys at Evo said their progressive coils are supple off the top, but I have to do a minimum of a 2.5" lift.
I built a camper van on a Ram Promaster, the backend is ~ 4-6"...
Yeah, damping matters, but is the damping that different from the Overland to the Willys? If so, a shock change would be in order.
I was reading the coil spring thread, and the Overland springs appear to be very similar to the Willys ?
I have a 2022 Willys Gasser, the goal is to SOFTEN the ride front and rear, no concerns over towing, so which springs would help me achieve my ends?
I'd been considering Overland springs, but according to teh first post, they are essentially the same.
What's the lowest number (softest) coil...
If it really does ride softer, the Overland springs would be ideal with a spring lift up front to level.
Do you know the spring numbers for the Overland?
Is the ride height similar, that way I can use the same shocks?
I don't wish we'd purchased a Mojave, mostly because it's more $$ and more vehicle than we need, but the suspension was far more supple, back to back with a Willys (which we bought), the Mohave rolled over curbs like it was nothing.
I'm thinking it'll be some work and take a collection of parts...
We just traded a 2022 JLU Sport S with an RC 2.5” lift for a stock 2022 Willys Gladiator gasser.
The Gladiator rides very firm, so I’m looking at spring options. We will do some light towing, but no significant hauling.
The goal is to have a similar ride quality to the JLU with the RC lift...
