i assume that the front end will be coil spring suspension, but will the back be leaf springs to handle the weight?

I definitely would like front and rear lockers like the current Rubicon. I hope this is already planned.

Both use Leaf Springs here in the U.S., but the JT will use coils like the 2500. From the spy shots they will be using a similar rear set up to that of the Ram 2500 Power Wagon. Its probably why the tow rating is set at 6,500 lbs and they are not trying to beat the Colorado's 7,000 lbs rating. (but is still similar to the ZR2 rating)

That is pretty cool. Thank you for the information. I didn’t realize that the 2500 had coils.

No problem!

Yea the 2500 uses coils but the 3500 goes back to leaf springs.
