JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

To all those who are misinformed about 4 door non rubi springs on a 2 door

As a post above eluded to, their are over 20 different spring rates for the JK platform. The variables determining the different usage is (to name a few) 2 door or 4 door, Sahara or X, dual top group, tow package etc etc. if you look in the back of the owners manual there is a few page spread of the different tow/GVWR weights for each model.

I would imagine if you were a 2 door owner looking for an inexpensive lift, I'd just make sure the springs came from a 4 door Rubi or Sahara with the dual top group & tow pkg.

Personally, I just bought the 2.5" TF when it was on mega sale 3 years ago but this spring swap is a Good cheap mod!

The Rubi springs aren't taller than the base springs, they just have a different compression rate, so it doesn't squat down as much. It still won't replace taller springs our spacers but can help.
