Mojave Suspension Components Questions vs Sport

[Ryan]

I recognize the obvious differences such as springs, shocks, bump stops etc..

My question surrounds the control arms - are they different on a Mojave or do they share the same specs as Sport?

Are there any other unique parts that I will need to source beyond the springs, shocks and bump stops to replace the stock suspension on a Sport S?

Best,
Ryan

No. Just shocks, springs, and front hydraulic bump stops.

This is great news as I will likely need to source a take off kit that will need to be shipped and knowing that I don't need to account for control arms or other items extends my search radius.

Frame is different (reenforced) has the cast iron knuckles from the diesel

Softer swaybar ... and be prepared for the shocks using a larger bolt ... good luck and have fun!

Assuming - there is a need bore out the existing mounts to accept the required shock bolt? Is that front and rear?

Good callouts on all the differences...


I've updated the title to direct the question to "Suspension" ?

Sorry for my self-entertaining post. I'm sitting here while my fellow instructor is teaching networking........?

Front for sure, rear.....I'm not 100%

The main reason that I know this is because the bolt size is the only difference between the standard AEV spacer lift and the Mojave spacer lift (i.e. I can't personally verify which bolts are different ... I just knew why I had to order my specific lift) ... with that disclaimer - according to the post below, the only difference is "one bolt on the front shocks"

The following thread touches on whether to drill out the frame or to use a bushing

As far as what the part number and details for the bolt happen to be, I checked Benny's ( @AllMoparParts.com ) thread of Mojave specific part numbers but didn't find it ... but I am sure that if you ask, that he will have it

Hope that this helps
