I'd like to see a 4 inch kit that uses shock extensions to take advantage of the fox shocks, and includes geometry brackets front and rear.

Nice thought, but those brackets would probably cost more than new shocks

Most Mopar 2” lifts come out at 2.5”

I don’t think that is realistic. A 2” lift with shock extension brackets is more likely, and all which would be needed to run 37’s. What size tires are you thinking to run with a 4” lift?

Superlift has a 4 inch kit for the JL with extensions. I'm currently running 40s on my JLUR. My plan for the Gladiator is 39-40s.

Doing all that, why not just do it right and buy the correct shocks for it, then recoup some of the expense by selling the stock Fox shocks to a Sport or Overland buyer?

Doubt there will be much of a market being that it isn't as wide spread of a vehicle as the wrangler.

Also usually I would upgrade to fox shocks. Why swap them out if I can just add brackets?

Are 40” tires legal in your state? In NJ 38” is the max.
Yes. Illinois is actually pretty good about jeep and truck mods. You won't get pulled over unless you are driving something absolutely ridiculous like a mud bogger with tractor tires.

Does anyone think the JL / JT lifts aren't fully interchangeable?

I do.
First, the Rubicons anyways, they have different shocks. JT uses FOX shocks, JL uses, ummm ya it has shocks.
Second, the JT's rear end is based off the RAM pickup.
