Construction & Design:
Fabtech’s Crawler suspension system is built with heavy-duty materials and precision engineering to withstand the rigors of serious off-road driving. The massive lower link arms are fabricated from thick-walled steel tubing, ensuring they resist bending or deformation under extreme loads. The full-width front crossmember not only secures the link arms at the ideal geometry but also adds critical reinforcement to the Gladiator’s frame, enhancing durability during aggressive trail use.
Each component is designed to integrate seamlessly with the Jeep Gladiator’s factory mounting points, minimizing the need for modifications while maximizing strength and performance. The use of Fabtech’s 5 Ton joints guarantees long-lasting, maintenance-free operation, combining ruggedness with smooth articulation for both trail and street driving.
Installation & Fitment:
This kit is engineered for the 2020 Jeep Gladiator Launch Edition, Overland, Rubicon, and Sport models equipped with the 3.6L V6 engine. Installation requires welding, and minor trimming or cutting of fenders may be necessary depending on tire and wheel size. Exhaust modifications or optional components such as the aFe loop delete pipe (P/N 48-48024) may be required to ensure proper fitment. For heavy off-road use, upgraded driveshafts are recommended for 4-door models (front FTS94057, rear FTS94068).
The system supports a wide range of tire and wheel combinations, including 35-inch tires on 17- to 20-inch wheels with standard fenders and up to 37-inch tires with high clearance fenders, accommodating various off-road setups with minor trimming or cutting as needed.
