Is the Mopar 2" Lift really a rebranded Superlift 4" Lift?
I'm just curious, how does 2" = 4" ?
And seems like there is a bit of a difference regarding the components?
I can see the coils, swaybar end links and track bar look similar, but what bout the rest, like the steering stabiliser etc?

Mopar lifts where rebranded RE lifts when they first came out for the JK. not 100% positive now but I havent heard anything to say differently yet.

That's the truth right there.. The 4.5" lift is still precisely the same as the RE 4.5" LA kit + DS's..
I know originally Mopar also offered a rebranded smaller RE lift, but apparently they've switched over to Superlift.. I dono.. I'm just curious to know whats going on
Haha just my perpetual quest to know more about JK's I guess

Yeah, the use Superlift springs and Bilstein 5100s. I love my Superlift, execpt for the shocks. Ths springs have not bowed at all after 12,000 or so miles and all the bolts have been staying tight, etc. One thing though, the Superlift kit comes with cam bolts. I would never ever use cam bolts on the JK. Invest in lower cotnrol arms, whether they be long or short. Either way, I would never use cam bolts.
