K4176DL

Overview:

The Fabtech 5-inch Trail Gas Shock with Dual-Rate Coil Springs and DLSS Reservoir is a comprehensive suspension upgrade designed specifically for the 2020 Jeep Gladiator 3.6L V6 models. Engineered to enhance off-road capability, this lift kit is ideal for drivers who demand superior performance on aggressive trails, rock crawling, and overland expeditions. It delivers a balanced combination of ride comfort and rugged durability, allowing Gladiator owners to confidently tackle challenging terrain without sacrificing daily drivability.

This system features a complete short arm suspension setup that retains factory lower control arm mounts for straightforward installation. Fabtech’s precision tuning of coil springs and shock valving ensures a compliant ride quality while providing increased suspension travel and improved vehicle stability.

Key Features:

Fabtech’s Trail Gas Shock suspension system offers a range of advanced features designed to optimize off-road performance and durability:

• Dual-rate coil springs that are corner-specific to maintain a level stance and maximize suspension articulation
• Fabtech 5 Ton Joint technology with large polyurethane bushings for long-lasting, quiet operation
• Heavy-duty lower link arms constructed from thick wall steel tubing, guaranteed not to bend under extreme conditions
• Draglink Flip kit and heavy-duty track bar brackets to correct steering geometry and prevent binding during full articulation
• Front and rear bump stop extensions to protect suspension components from over-cycling
• Shock absorbers equipped with remote reservoirs (DLSS) for improved heat dissipation and consistent damping performance
• Designed to accommodate tire sizes up to 40x12.5R20 with appropriate fender modifications
• Maintains factory roll center and axle positioning for predictable handling

Construction & Design:

Fabtech’s suspension components are engineered with durability and performance in mind. The lower control arms are fabricated from thick wall steel tubing, providing exceptional strength and resistance to bending or deformation. Large polyurethane bushings reduce noise and vibration while enhancing longevity compared to traditional rubber mounts.

The dual-rate coil springs feature a progressive design: the initial stage offers a soft, compliant ride for everyday driving and extended suspension travel, while the secondary stage supports vehicle payload and absorbs high-speed impacts. The inclusion of remote reservoir shocks improves fluid cooling and shock response, ensuring consistent damping during prolonged off-road use.

Installation & Fitment:

This Fabtech lift kit is designed for 2020 Jeep Gladiator models equipped with the 3.6L V6 engine. Installation utilizes factory lower control arm mounts, simplifying the process and reducing the need for extensive modifications. Minor trimming or cutting of fender components may be required depending on tire and wheel size, especially when fitting larger 40-inch tires with high clearance fenders.

For heavy off-road use, Fabtech recommends upgrading to heavy-duty driveshafts (front part # FTS94057 and rear part # FTS94068) on 4-door Gladiator models to ensure drivetrain reliability.
