Construction & Design:
Fabtech’s 5in Crawler Coilover system is built with high-quality materials and precision engineering to withstand the rigors of offroad driving. The lower link arms are constructed from heavy-duty 2-inch outer diameter tubing with .313-inch thick walls, ensuring exceptional strength and resistance to bending or deformation. The front crossmember spans the full width of the frame rails, reinforcing the lighter JL frame and maintaining proper suspension geometry under load.
The Dirt Logic coilovers feature stainless steel reservoirs that improve heat dissipation and shock performance during extended offroad use. Fabtech’s 5 Ton joints are engineered for longevity and smooth articulation, providing quiet street operation without sacrificing offroad toughness.
Installation & Fitment:
Installation of the Fabtech 5in Crawler Coilovers requires welding and is designed specifically for 2018 to 2020 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon, Sahara, Sport, and Sport S models equipped with 6-cylinder engines and 4-door configurations. Exhaust modifications are necessary, or alternatively, the AFE P/N 48-48024 loop delete pipe can be ordered to accommodate the new suspension setup. Additionally, upgraded driveshafts (FTS94057 front and FTS94065 rear) are required for 4-door models to ensure proper driveline angles and reliability.
Minor trimming or cutting of fenders may be needed depending on tire and wheel size, especially when running larger 40-inch tires with high clearance fenders. This system is engineered to work seamlessly with standard fenders and tire sizes up to 37x12.5R20 with minimal trimming.
