Default Body lift

Did a 2 inch body lift 08 rubicon 2door and got this nasty looking gap in the back and suggestions or part numbers to get rid of it.

Look into a product called "lift lips". I have not looked to see if they have them for JKs but I had them on my TJ and the filled the gap nice.

Many body lifts have these little bracket plates that raise the rear bumper up some. Can't remember the ones that come with them though.

Most of Performance Accessories body lifts come with bumper relocation brackets. I'd check to see if they make them for JK's/JKU's.

Rough Country also sells the brackets to lift your bumper back up to hide the gap
