Fabtech Trail LT Suspension System

2007–2018 Jeep Wrangler / Wrangler JK

K4068M

Overview:

The Fabtech 5-inch Trail LT with Stealth suspension system is engineered to elevate the off-road capability of Jeep Wrangler models from 2007 through 2018, including both JK and earlier JK variants. Designed for serious off-road enthusiasts, this system replaces the factory lower link arms with heavy-duty short arms that withstand the rigors of aggressive trail riding, rock crawling, and overland expeditions. Despite its rugged construction, the Trail LT system maintains a smooth and quiet ride on the highway, making it an ideal upgrade for drivers who demand both performance and comfort.

By utilizing the factory link arm mounts, Fabtech ensures a precise fit and reliable installation while enhancing suspension travel and articulation. This system is perfect for Jeep owners looking to run larger tires up to 40 inches with minimal trimming, providing improved ground clearance and off-road geometry.

Key Features:

The Fabtech Trail LT suspension system incorporates advanced design elements and premium components to deliver superior off-road performance without sacrificing daily drivability:

• Replaces all four lower link arms with heavy-duty short arms for enhanced durability and obstacle clearance
• Large polyurethane bushings on one end and internally threaded ends to accept Fabtech’s 5 Ton Joint for long-lasting, quiet operation
• Dual rate long travel coil springs maintain factory load capacity while offering extended suspension travel for aggressive rock crawling
• Includes front adjustable track bar and rear track bar bracket with support for improved axle alignment and handling
• Stealth shocks engineered for smooth damping and consistent performance on and off-road
• Front and rear sway bar links designed to maintain proper sway bar geometry during suspension articulation
• Front and rear brake lines and emergency brake brackets included to ensure proper fitment and safety
• Front bump stop extensions and rear bump stop brackets to prevent suspension over-compression
• Supports tire sizes up to 40/13.50R17 with tube fenders and 37/12.50R20 with cutting

Construction & Design:

Fabtech’s Trail LT system is crafted from high-strength steel components engineered to withstand the harshest off-road conditions. The short arms are precision-built to replace the factory lower links, which are prone to damage from rocks and trail obstacles. The use of large polyurethane bushings combined with Fabtech’s patented 5 Ton Joint technology reduces noise and vibration while enhancing durability and articulation.

The dual rate coil springs are designed to provide a smooth ride on pavement while offering the flexibility needed for extreme off-road travel. The system’s track bar components and sway bar links are engineered to maintain proper suspension geometry, ensuring stable handling and improved control.

Installation & Fitment:

Installation of the Fabtech Trail LT suspension system requires welding and is recommended for experienced installers or professional shops. The system is designed specifically for Jeep Wrangler models from 2007 to 2017 and the 2018 Wrangler JK, including 2-door and Unlimited variants. Note that 2-door models from 2007 to 2011 and 2012 to 2018 require specific driveshaft replacements (front FTS94057 and rear FTS94051 or FTS94058 respectively) to complete the upgrade.

Depending on wheel and tire size, some cutting of the fenders may be necessary to accommodate larger tires. The system supports a variety of wheel sizes and offsets, allowing for customization based on the owner's preferences and vehicle setup.
