Rubicon Diesel Springs on Sport S

[Jim-HV]

Hey All,

I recently picked up some springs, Fox shocks and wheels from a 2021 Gladiator Rubicon Diesel to put on my 2020 Sport S. All 4 springs have different numbers, which I believe is due to the weight distribution on the diesel. The part numbers on the diesel springs are as follows.

Front: 68506377A & 68506378AA
Rear: 68506251AA & 68506252AA

I am not really sure which is for the driver and passenger sides. I have been on the Mopar parts site and that was not helping. Numerous google searches was pretty much the same.

I guess my questions would be:
Does it matter which side I put the springs on, since my Sport S is different from the diesel from a weight distribution standpoint?
&
Would anyone happen to know how the springs are installed on the diesel.

Thanks,
Jim

I do know the larger numbers always goes on the passenger side. So front passenger will be 78. Drivers front 77. I too am curious about the diesel springs compared to the gas version. Keep us informed of the outcome.

What's odd is that my truck has the same part numbers left and right. 377AA in the front, for example, but on both sides. I've never seen that before on a Jeep until I got this one.

It rides amazing. Much nicer ride than my old Max Tow.

Thanks for the response WXman. I am looking forward to getting the suspension upgrades installed.

Any update on this? Interested to see how you like it as I just removed my rubicon diesel oem suspension and might sell.

Mine has different numbers. But they are the same on both sides. Sport S Ecodiesel.

How did this swap work out? Thanks in advance.

Also wondering how this worked out?

The diesel springs are too soft for a diesel any added height comes from thicker isolators on top or bottom. The diesels have a .5” thicker lower isolator on one side.
