How do the ride heights compare to each other?

Honestly I’m not sure yet. My JKU got hit the beginning of June and it’s still at the shop being worked on. I drove to Arizona to pick this up. Towed it with a Ram 2500. Height on that is perfect. And towing it with the 2500 is a breeze. Can’t even tell it’s behind you.
I’m putting a new 3500lb axle on the M1101 with 35s. Hoping it is somewhat the same as the Jeep hitch. If not, I don’t mind using a 2” up/down extension but won’t go past 2”. I’ll push the axle up into the body of the trailer more if it’s still off by a lot.
