Looks pretty much the same as a JK.
Generally looks the same to me as well, though I'm sure there are a lot of mechanical changes that were made. Something about new Dana axles on the JL Wrangler?
all par had some article on what we can expect of suspension, I suggest you guys read it if you haven't already

Will it really have an independent suspension?
The short answer: Yes, I believe it will have a front independent suspension (“IFS”), adapted from the Ram 4x4, with a live rear axle.

Did that article come out on April 1?! IFS on a Wrangler would be an abomination!
We'll know for sure soon, auto companies haven't really stepped up to the plate with a truly off-road-ready IFS and the Wrangler is the epitome of an off-road vehicle. So the new Wrangler JL may not get IFS.

sadly it came out months later in October :(
