2025 Rubicon Mojito. Previously -2020 Gobi Sport S (Max Tow)
So on my 20 sport s max tow, i enjoyed it with having rubicon take off stuff and 1.5 level spacer out front and 3/4 daystar spacer out back. Had mopar longer control arms and extended shock brackets for the rubicon shocks. It seemed to ride decent and worked for what I used it for.

I recently picked up a 25 rubicon, and want to go the same route to start off with until further down the road. So.....i picked up a 2.5 teraflex performance spacer kit and some falcon 1.1 shocks. So there will be no shock extension brackets. At 2.5 is there anything else I need? Would the lower control arms be needed? If so, would the mopar ones work as they are reasonably priced. What about track bar?

Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I think for now this setup should hold me over until further down the road when I have more need and more funds.

At 2.5", caster will be off and the axle will shift to the side. You'll need geo brackets or longer LCAs and an adjustable track bar. You can find a decent and sturdy track bar for under $200 (RSO Beast for 0-6 inches of lift) and the Mopar LCAs are cheap.

Yeah I was thinking the low control arms from mopar if they are enough to get me back to where I need to be

The idea of a spacer lift is that it preloads the springs and gives you a bit of height, and you shouldn't need to get the lower control arms. What are your future plans for your build?

Not 100% sure just yet. Maybe not much more. Who knows.

But I don’t see how it couldn’t affect caster as it raises the truck and the control arm brackets are attached to the truck parts it raises higher in turn which would chang the angles?
