Just picked up my 2020 Sport. I bought it used with 14k on the odometer. I love it so far! I noticed that the shocks are made by Fox and they also say Rubicon on them. I’m assuming the original owner swapped them out? How do these differ from the original sport shocks?

Congrats and welcome! Yeah I bet that means the original owner (who may be lurking here?) swapped out the whole original suspension for Rubicon takeoffs. Not sure off top of my head what that got you, but maybe 2" of lift all around? Wouldn't make sense to me that they just replaced shocks and not springs too.

Sport or Sport S? Just curious. S package added power windows & locks.

I does have power windows and locks. I’ll have to get under it and check on the springs to see if they were swapped as well.

Congrats on the new ride. If they swapped in the Rubicon take-offs, you should have the upgraded shocks, taller springs, longer sway bar end links, and maybe even the front lower control arms. These are the typical parts replaced on the Mopar 2-inch lift. I sold mine to a guy that had an Overland model when I lifted my Rubi.
