Rear 4 Link Kit for Jeep JT Gladiator
Compatible With:
JT
You reach the point where the rear axle is ready for real link geometry, but the factory rear structure has nothing solid to offer. The links want proper separation and fixed mounting points, and the stock crossmember simply is not built for that load. This is where the build moves past adapting factory parts and starts replacing them.
This rear link crossmember exists to replace the factory rear crossmember and provide a true structural foundation for a double triangulated rear suspension. Integrated upper and lower link mounts establish fixed geometry so the rear suspension is supported by real structure instead of thin factory steel. For larger tires, heavier axles, and real suspension travel, this is no longer optional.
Once installed, suspension forces are carried directly into the frame rails through a rigid crossmember designed to take repeated abuse. The rear axle stays controlled under throttle and braking, and link motion remains clean throughout the suspension cycle. The crossmember also acts as a mounting point for skid protection, keeping the underside supported and smooth.
Highlights
- Replacement rear frame crossmember for Jeep JT
- Integrated upper and lower link mounts for double triangulated rear suspension
- Structural component designed to carry rear suspension loads
- Eliminates rear track bar
- Keys into the factory frame rails for accurate placement
- Accepts 2-5/8 inch wide joints
- 5/8 inch joint mounting holes, expandable if desired
- Link mounting hardware recessed and protected
- Supplied as fully welded subassemblies in raw steel
Notes and Requirements
- Requires rear mounted fuel tank
- Factory fuel tank must be removed and relocated
Cutting and welding to the factory frame are required. This system is intended for experienced fabricators performing structural work. The crossmember is designed to locate precisely within the frame rails, reducing layout time and locking in suspension geometry.
When the rear axle is anchored to real structure instead of factory compromise, the suspension finally has a foundation that matches the rest of the build.
