upgrading to Rubi coils and shocks?
I have a 09 jk unlimited and im considering upgrading to some rubi takeoffs.
my front coil has a few part numbers and im not sure which one to look at.
5221226317AC-is on the white part of the tag
5212 and 6317AC is on the blue. What do these mean?
Im told jeep made some with Heavy duty coils and shocks. Are all OEM Rubi coils and shocks equal?Do I need to look for certian part numbers? And will I see a difference?

The part numbers can be explained in the above thread link.
I don't think you will see any height difference, maybe, depending on the rubicon shocks age and wear, you will see minimal ride improvement.
Normally, people with 2 Doors, will do the swap. I don't think it's worth your time if you have a four door hardtop (tow package) to change your springs, but the rubicon shocks will help. Worth the effort in my opinion, no, but it's your jk
I would like to see before and afters if you are set on this. Let us know how it goes.
