Lower control arms Rubicon swap on Sport S

[RowdyRknRandy]

Hey guys I got a rubicon suspension swap that I plan on adding a 1.5 Teraflex level kit. The new swap has lower control arms from the rubicon but I read reading here that the rubicons have the same part numbers on the lower control arms as my sport s. If they are Do I need adjustable lower control arms due to the 1.5 Teraflex and the natural lift from the rubicon? Do I treat this set up as a lift and get control arms and a trac bar from possibly getting a 2-2.5 lift from this set up?
just kind of lost here lads

Same control arms, but you can get the adjustable control arms as many do.

Other option is to get the LCA from the 2" Mopar lift.

I ran that with the 1.5" spacer kit and it worked well.

This is what I intend to do when I piece my 2" lift together. I'll probably add adjustable track bars also. Having axles off center drives me crazy, I might be a bit OCD a somethings.

No that’s just what makes sense you care about your jeep. Now that I know more about lifting jeeps I see a bunch of jeeps here in person that don’t have the right parts and they’re wondering why they have driving issues pops and creaks.

Only 1.5” front lift i didn’t even need to adjust my steering drag-link ,sway bar links were good, just added Mopar lift lower arms, adjustable Trac bar wasn’t needed until 2” and up.

This is my rubicon with 1.5” front spacer

Whether you lift a little with pucks or don't lift at all, I recommend the LCA's from the MOPAR lift kit.

After doing a hands on lift of 3" last week, I HIGHLY recommend anyone that is not lifting or just putting spacers in, loosen all your control arm bolts while the JT is sitting on the ground. Let it settle and then tighten everything back up to torque specs.

My Rubi was in a bind on all corners and none of them were close to the other.

Good advice
