I also added the Mopar 2” lift kit and put on 35’s. I kept my factory Overland rims and put on Nitto Ridge Grappler A/T tires, LT285/75/R18.

Been thinking against a lift, but this makes me reconsider.

I just ordered the Mopar 2" for my Sport S max tow. I'm looking to add JKS Quicker Disconnects as well. Does anyone know if I should go with the 0-2" or the 2.5"-6"? I feel like this lift is right on the edge of the two.
What benefit would the quicker disconnects add to your lift?

As a cynical owner of now my third Rubicon, I am considering quick disconnects just because that stupid disconnect mechanism WILL fail one day when you want to use it. I don’t see how it helps with a lift though.

They allow full suspension travel without the limitation of the front sway bar. Only needed if you really plan to use it off road. They're well worth the $175 for the performance.

l've noticed some lifts include longer sway bar links so I assume you could just add the longer disconnects as part of the lift. Maybe I’m misunderstanding.

When off road you don’t want your sway bar connected. Rubicons leave the end links connected but disconnect the sway bar via an actuator on the actual sway bar itself. On a non rubicon model you can either unbolt your end links when you get to the trails or you can replace the end links with quick disconnecting end links where you pull a pin and slide the end link off its lower mount and swing the whole sway bar up out of the way (see my photo for this). Take a look at the install guide for some JKS Quicker Disconnects and it should make more sense

Right, I was replying to what benefits the disconnects would add to a lift. Might as well add them when you’re doing a lift and needing to install longer swaybar links is was what I was meaning to say

I made the assumption that we were talking about Rubicons. The e-disconnect isn’t the most reliable thing in the world so i also like to install quick disconnects for the eventual failure

Ah, yes. Definitely makes sense to do it with the lift. That’s what I did. If I ever go taller I’m already set too since they’re adjustable. Really happy with the set up.

Got the mopar lift with 2” spacer up front. 9.5” up front and 9 in rear so I’m .5” nose heavy.

JEEP, just empty every pocket, time to get a bumper and winch to pull the front down
