When measuring at the front at the spring perch, we are seeing 3.125"-3.25" above a stock Rubicon. I'd take the tire variable totally out of the equation and measure 2 reference points that are axle to frame, stock vs lifted.
Will do. I failed to mention that I added 208-lbs of winch and bumper at the same time as the lift, which may account for some of the difference in our measurements.

All on the front?!!?! That's a lot of bumper and winch

Edit: the post now says 208 but the email notification said 301 lbs. 208 isn't totally crazy, but 301 is a lot of weight on the front.

I'm not sure if you replied before I edited it down. Its 208-lbs: 115-lb steel bumper + 93-lb (12K-lb) winch. It's actually about 218-lbs when you add in the 10-lbs of synthetic winch line.

Nice. I have the same experience with mine. I also put on the Fox steering stabilizer and the Synergy stabilizer relocation kit. Did you put those or anything similar on yours?

FWIW, I measured mine and a stock JTR with the Falkens that originally came with mine, and accounting for the difference in tire radius (per mfr specs), the RK lift raised mine 2.5" both front and rear. Logic says that it would raise a non-Rubi more, since they have lower springs.
Stock steering stabilizer. It feels so good right now i`m afraid to change anything but i have plans for this drag link. https://www.fusion4x4.com/online-st...ladiator-2-5-Ton-Drag-Link-RUBICON-p146082459

2020 Gladiator Rubicon. Granite Crystal. Black Freedom Top & Fenders. Rock Krawler 3” Pro-X No limits Lift,
Just ordered the Pro X No Limit kit less shocks (SKU: JT30PXNL) and the wait begins.......
Looks like the Front control arms are adding 15-20 day delivery times. Gives me time to read/re-read instructions.
I placed the order through 4 Wheel Parts and the SKU they had was JT30PX. Pic was the same however. Hope it’s up to date with revisions RK may have made.
For shocks I went with Fox 2.5’s with remote reservoir and DSC on the front. The rear shocks are Rancho 9000XL adjustable for now until Fox releases their rear set of 2.5’s for the JT. Looking forward to getting this kit installed.
