I'm pretty sure the Evo kit comes with extension brackets for your factory Rubicon shocks... Also, everyone bitches about the Fox IFP's in the Mopar kit, because they're tuned for a JL, and not a JT. And lots of people are pulling them off and selling them, or selling them at a huge loss, and buying Falcon shocks or something else. I'v even heard the Mopar 2" kit Fox IFP shocks are a downgrade over the stock Rubicon Fox shocks because the valving is all wrong. Just food for thought.i didn’t read who posted this then I saw what lift it was and knew..
Man I’m not saying anything is wrong with the EVO lift. It’s gotta be a damn fine setup. But It looses on price to pretty much everything. That’s not the same cost as the Mopar because it’s even more incomplete. You gotta add another 600 bucks to that for the Fox shocks that the Mopar lift includes. Plus the Mopar lift can actually be hard for more like 1200.
So in reality, that Mopar kit is both inferior in quality and component beefiness & strength, and in shock valving. I wouldn't call it a better deal. Just "another option".
Personally, If I'm going to build a truck, I'm going to overbuild a truck. I don't like fixing or replacing shit after I have already supposedly upgraded those parts. The Mopar 2" lift LCA's are just as weak as the stock ones, they're just 1/4" longer...Built the same design and metal, too.
Not to mention the EVO kit comes with new stainless braided brake lines... I don't see the Mopar kit coming with those. Or adjustable lower control arms. Or adjustable front & rear track bars...
