Hey Team,
I'm sure there is a ton on this, just looking for some feedback on what is preferred. I'm putting a 2.5 inch Mopar Lift on my 2022 Overland (trying to keep warranty). Want to replace all 8 control arms and Track Bars. Looking at Tier 3 Core 4x4 or the higher end Clayton with the Johnny Joint and GIIRO Joint. About the same money. Or if someone is totally sold on a different brand, would like to hear about that and reasons why. Thanks for responding!

21 JTRD 3" RKK lift, (former) 95 XJ 5sp 8" lift
for a 2.5 mopar lift i would just keep the LCA's stock and save the money. Overland and 2.5" tells me you aren't going to be doing any crazy 4x4 where the arms are going to get trashed and at 2.5" lift you are going to be into the bump stops at articulation before you reach the limits of the control arm bushings.

If you are worried aftermarket parts not bought through the dealer are going to create warranty issues I don't see your plan working out.

Either just run the mopar lift as is or forget about the Mopar kit and go get the parts you really want. Trying to combine the two is just adding extra cost for no reason

Edit: Wanted to add, Synergy is another quality option for aftermarket

Thanks, Yes Synergy is also on my list. It's just a daily driver, not much rock climbing.

You'll be better off just using a drop bracket IMO.
