Product Details

This Trail Lift Kit is engineered to deliver enhanced suspension performance across all forms of off-highway driving, including rock crawling, aggressive trail use, and overland expeditions. The system is carefully tuned with dual rate coil springs and matched shock valving to provide a smooth, controlled, and highly compliant ride that performs just as confidently on the highway as it does off the pavement.

Designed as a complete short arm suspension, this kit utilizes the factory lower control arm mounting points for a straightforward, bolt-on installation. Fabtech’s heavy duty lower link arms are constructed from thick wall steel tubing and are guaranteed never to bend under extreme conditions. Each arm features large polyurethane bushings on one end and internal threads on the other to accept Fabtech’s proven 5 Ton Joint®, delivering exceptional strength, long-term durability, and quiet operation.

Fabtech’s corner-specific dual rate Gladiator coil springs are engineered exclusively for the Jeep JT platform. This design keeps the vehicle level side to side while increasing usable suspension travel. The initial spring rate provides a soft, comfortable ride over small bumps, while the secondary rate is tuned to support vehicle payload and absorb larger impacts during aggressive offroad driving.

To maintain proper steering geometry with the increased ride height, the system includes a Draglink Flip Kit along with a heavy duty Track Bar bracket. This combination restores the Gladiator’s steering components to their factory operating plane, allowing full suspension articulation without binding and minimizing bump steer in extreme terrain.

At the rear, a heavy duty Track Bar bracket recenters the axle beneath the vehicle and helps retain the factory roll center for predictable handling and stability. Front and rear bump stop extensions are included to prevent suspension over-travel and protect critical steering and suspension components.

This Jeep Gladiator lift kit is an excellent choice for daily drivers who want serious offroad capability without sacrificing comfort, control, or long-distance drivability. Every Fabtech component is designed with specific features and benefits that work together to create a durable, well-balanced suspension system.

Features

  • Control Link Arms: Fabtech short arm link arms maintain proper factory bushing cross-bolt angles, eliminating premature bushing wear and poor handling.
  • Lower Link Arm Replacement: System replaces all four lower link arms due to off-road vulnerability and includes massive Fabtech 5 Ton Joints with a lifetime warranty.
  • Heavy-Duty Link Arm Construction: 1.75-inch OD link arms with .250-inch thick walls, guaranteed not to bend.
  • Front and Rear Dual Rate Long Travel Coil Springs: Corner-specific dual-rate coil springs provide a level side-to-side stance, factory load-carrying capacity, and a smooth ride.
  • Progressive Dual Rate Design: Initial spring rate absorbs small bumps for a compliant ride, while increased rate later in travel supports larger impacts and additional cargo.
  • Increased Suspension Travel: Dual-rate coil springs deliver excellent all-around driving performance with increased suspension travel for off-road use.
  • Draglink Flip System: Heavy-duty draglink relocation at the steering knuckle retains factory steering geometry with the stock pitman arm, providing bind-free operation and eliminating bump steer.
  • Front Lower Shock Mounts: Brackets reposition the front shocks to function without interference from suspension components or the axle during increased articulation.
  • Front Track Bar Bracket: 1/4-inch thick steel bolt-on bracket relocates the track bar to the proper operating plane for correct steering geometry and long-term durability.
  • Rear Track Bar Bracket: Bolt-on 1/4-inch thick steel bracket eliminates mount deflection and retains the factory rear roll center.
  • Bump Stop Extensions: Front and rear extensions prevent suspension over-cycling while utilizing factory closed-cell cushions for a progressive stop.
  • Front and Rear Sway Bar Links: Extended-length sway bar links with urethane bushings reposition sway bars within factory operating planes and prevent binding at full extension.
  • Stealth Shocks: Extended-length monotube shocks feature a nitro-carburized piston rod for corrosion resistance and rock-chip protection, delivering a smooth highway ride with strong off-road damping.
