Construction & Design:
Fabtech’s 5in Trail Gas Suspension Kit is built with durability and performance in mind. The lower link arms are fabricated from thick wall steel tubing, providing exceptional strength and resistance to bending or deformation during extreme off-road use. The use of large polyurethane bushings combined with the innovative 5 Ton Joint™ ensures a quiet, maintenance-friendly ride while enhancing joint longevity under heavy loads.
The dual rate coil springs are engineered specifically for the Jeep Gladiator’s chassis, with a two-stage design that offers a soft initial ride for comfort and extended travel, followed by a firmer second stage to support payload and absorb high-speed impacts. This thoughtful spring design maintains vehicle balance and ride quality both on and off the road.
Installation & Fitment:
The Fabtech Trail Gas Suspension Kit is designed for a direct bolt-on installation using the factory lower control arm mounts, simplifying the upgrade process without the need for extensive modifications. The kit fits 2020 Jeep Gladiator models equipped with 6-cylinder engines, including Launch Edition, Overland, Rubicon, and Sport trims.
Minor trimming or cutting of fenders may be required depending on tire and wheel size combinations, especially when fitting larger 40-inch tires with high clearance fenders. For heavy off-road use, upgraded driveshafts are recommended for 4-door models to ensure drivetrain reliability.
