Born from a rich pedigree of heavy commercial vehicle engineering by \u003cstrong\u003ePowerdown\u003c\/strong\u003e, this system replaces fatigued factory coils and failing twin-tube dampers to provide up to \u003cstrong\u003e40mm of ground clearance\u003c\/strong\u003e — carefully limited to prevent severe driveline vibrations or requiring an immediate slip-yoke eliminator conversion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe TJ generation was the first Wrangler to use a \u003cstrong\u003equadra-coil live-axle suspension setup\u003c\/strong\u003e in place of traditional leaf springs, and this kit is purpose-engineered for that platform. Whether you’re packing a Quick Pitch Quick-en-Suite Box Unit, permanent rooftop tents, or tracking cross-border over corrugated gravel routes, the upgraded coils and RC-JPTJR-HD Constant-Load Rear Springs stop rear-end sag dead in its tracks. Equipped with heavy-duty charged Nitro shocks with multi-stage velocity-sensitive disk valving calibrated to mitigate the signature nose-dive during braking and highway body roll common to short-wheelbase live-axle Jeeps.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKit Components \u0026amp; Part Numbers\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFront Nitro Gas Shock Absorbers – Pair (G0113)\u003c\/strong\u003e – 35mm bore, nitro-charged, includes poly bushes \u0026amp; protective dust boots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFront Raised Coil Springs (RC-JPTJF)\u003c\/strong\u003e – 0–50kg \/ Standard Touring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFront Heavy-Duty Raised Coil Springs (RC-JPTJF-HD)\u003c\/strong\u003e – 50–100kg \/ Steel Bumper \u0026amp; Winch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRear Nitro Gas Shock Absorbers – Pair (G0114)\u003c\/strong\u003e – matched rear damping for live rear axle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRear Heavy-Duty Coil Springs (RC-JPTJR)\u003c\/strong\u003e – 0–150kg \/ Everyday Touring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRear Extra Heavy-Duty Coil Springs (RC-JPTJR-HD)\u003c\/strong\u003e – Constant 250kg+ for RTT, drawers \u0026amp; permanent overland builds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeavy-Duty Steering Damper Upgrade (RAW-SD-5011)\u003c\/strong\u003e – strongly recommended (see note below)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003e⚠️ Important: Steering Damper Strongly Recommended\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe short-wheelbase Jeep TJ is highly prone to steering feedback issues — commonly known as \u003cstrong\u003e“death wobble”\u003c\/strong\u003e — when factory steering joints fatigue, particularly after a lift installation. \u003cstrong\u003eWe strongly recommend adding the Heavy-Duty Steering Damper Upgrade (RAW-SD-5011) to your order\u003c\/strong\u003e to eliminate this risk and ensure safe, confident steering on all surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTotal Lift:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40mm (1.5 inches) over factory ride height\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKit Weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e ~32–35kg (four-coil setup — lighter than leaf-spring bakkie kits)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackaged Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 840mm × 450mm × 280mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShock Bore:\u003c\/strong\u003e 35mm nitro-charged | Expanded steel outer tube | Valving: Multi-stage velocity-sensitive disk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWarranty\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIndustry-leading \u003cstrong\u003e3-Year \/ 60,000km Warranty\u003c\/strong\u003e — covers progressive coil sagging, fracturing, and high-pressure oil seal blowouts under extreme trail conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProfessional Fitment Available Nationwide\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrefer to have it fitted by experts? \u003cstrong\u003eAdvanced 4x4 offers professional fitment at our fitment centres across South Africa.\u003c\/strong\u003e Simply place your order online and contact us to book your fitment appointment at the centre nearest to you.
