I post this in every stock spring thread I see, that there is no such thing as "rubicon" or "jku" springs, you HAVE to look at the numbers first.
I've lost count the number of times this has happened, someone bought "rubi" springs only to find they are the same or worse then what they already have.

I agree with this, and my rear coils do start with 68, but not the rest. I am 60% sure they are from a 10A, but do not want to crap shoot it and waste my time. I am sorry for beating a dead horse, but I would like some clarification. Thank you all for your input. Do the photos seem like they are from a 10A?

If you just want a bit of a boost I'd install the TF leveling kit or some small spacers. Then there's no guessing and wasted work.

You have to look at the 2 numbers they end with and these are your spring numbers not the starting number.

For example:

Front p/n 52126319AB (this is a 19 front spring)

Rear p/n 68004460AA (this is a 60 rear spring)

Hope this makes sense.
