Default Ride height

Does my Sahara with the tow package sit higher than a Sahara without the tow package? I see a Sahara in my neighborhood without a tow receiver on it driving around and I swear it looks lower than mine.

I think the same exact thing. I have the tow package and I think mine sits higher as well. I measured to the bottom of my fenders, through the center of the wheel, and I was right under 36". Maybe someone who doesn't have a tow package could measure their height?

I would imagine it has stronger/taller springs to accommodate trailer weight.
