Would a 2.5 rough country leveling kit with a .75 daystar rear spacer be more lift than the mopar 2 inch lift kit or would they be almost the same

Probable be about the same but with the mopar kit your getting new shocks and spring (not that the springs are any good but I hear the shocks are) I gained 3.5” in front and 2.5” rear with mopar and 3/4 day star spacers all around

I have the rubicon so with the rough country 2.5 leveling kit I used shock extensions on the Fox shocks everything came in the kit. It rides great I run 35’s now about to go to 37’s

I had the readylift 2.5" SST lift installed and absolutely love it. Mine rides same as stock or better with this kit installed. No need to change the factory shocks they ride just fine. Mine on 35's with no lift and with the Readylift installed

I did the RC 2.5” leveling with 1.5” spacers and had it installed at a local garage. Cost me around $450 total. I have a sport and think it rides great, but am
Considering swapping to rubicon shocks if I can find them for reasonable price shipped to me.

Where did you find the 1.5 spacers and are they on the front and rear or just the rear

My Sport S with BDS 2” leveling kit. Dealer said no shocks needed, and he wouldn’t use the bds shocks anyway. Tires are 315/70/17. Rides great and removed most of the rake!

I’d do the MOPAR. You’ll get hugger quality parts, a better ride and more articulation.
