The Gladiator’s long wheelbase delivers a great ride — but the factory suspension is prone to rear-end sag under load and lacks the clearance needed for technical break-over angles on demanding trails. This kit levels the stance, adds 50mm of meaningful ground clearance, and provides the heavy-duty support required for both daily driving and serious off-road expeditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFeaturing \u003cstrong\u003e41mm Bore Foam Cell Shock technology\u003c\/strong\u003e engineered for the JT’s unique weight distribution, this system delivers consistent damping and maximum heat dissipation during long hauls on corrugated tracks, sand dunes, and rocky terrain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e🔧 Kit Components \u0026amp; Technical Specs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLift Height:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approximately 50mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFront Shocks:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2x 41mm Bore Foam Cell Shock Absorbers (9-stage adjustable units recommended for varying loads)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRear Shocks:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2x 41mm Bore Foam Cell Shock Absorbers (9-stage adjustable units recommended for varying loads)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFront Springs:\u003c\/strong\u003e Heavy-duty Coil Springs — available for No Bar, Steel Bullbar, or Winch setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRear Springs:\u003c\/strong\u003e LWB-specific Coil Springs — Comfort or Constant Load options (ideal for drawer systems and heavy canopies)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFront \u0026amp; Rear Brake Line Relocation Brackets\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Sway Bar Links\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBump Stop Extensions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCaster Correction Bolts\u003c\/strong\u003e — maintains factory steering geometry post-lift\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApprox.

Tough Dog’s progressive rate springs preserve the iconic “Jeep feel” while dramatically increasing your ability to carry gear without bottoming out.
