The Mopar 2" lift will be 'added' to your VIN as part of your warranty, dealers will ALWAYS try to sell that. For other lifts, like the 3.5" MC GC I'm about to install by a reputable shop, they say 'could' void the warranty, not definite which makes sense. The printed warranty does not have anything specific to lifts or suspension. Best bet is get along with your local service dept and they should be more workable with warranty claims when they come.

I put on LT295 70 18 which is a 34” tire and my dealership wanted $250 to program the system.
I bought an ECRI for about $130 and did it myself!
How did the ECRI work for you I have a j scan and can’t mail the tire size I’m hoping the gps on ECRI does

Regardless of whether it is Mopar or not. Jeep does allow you to lift up to 2 inches without affecting the warranty. If you use non-Mopar parts they will not be covered but as long as you stay 2 inches or under their installation will not affect the warranty on the remainder of the jeep. This is paraphrasing what is in the manual. They won't clean your Lyft screwed up the transmission or whatever as long as you're under 2 inches.

Doesn’t look like it. Looks like a slight lift.
2" Mopar lift if I recall the added $$ sheet on the windshield.
They've had at least 3 lifted JTs that I've seen and I don't even get there very often so likely they've had more since I usually see one when I am there.
They take new trucks and lift them then sell 'em.
The RAM trucks I've seen them mod I'd need a ladder to get into.

The lots in my area are filled with those. From driving around town, there seems to be a demand for lifted JT’s. I saw one this evening (a Mojave). The tires looked big, so I’m guessing they were 37’s.

I haven’t verified the setting but it seems right. Fuel mileage checks out when doing it by hand when compared with the dash. I figure after I put 10k on the tires I will reset it using the GPS function. So far I am happy with it.
