The JKS JSPEC198KFP is a complete J-Krawl suspension lift system delivering 3.5 inches of front lift and 2 inches of rear lift for the Jeep Gladiator JT. Engineered for maximum articulation, improved strength, and full adjustability, this kit is purpose-built for serious off-road performance without sacrificing everyday drivability.
At the heart of this system are JSPEC dual-rate coil springs at all four corners, specifically developed to level the Gladiator's factory rake while delivering a smooth, predictable ride across any terrain. The front shocks are FOX 2.0 IFP Performance Series units custom-valved by the JKS engineering team for this specific spring and control arm combination. The rear uses FOX 2.0 IFP Performance Series shocks matched for the 2-inch rear lift. Both feature an Internal Floating Piston (IFP) monotube design that completely separates the nitrogen gas charge from the shock fluid, eliminating oil aeration for consistent damping performance on the trail or the highway.
Control arms are equipped with rubber bushings for a compliant, road-friendly feel. The complete kit also corrects suspension geometry through its adjustable components, allowing you to dial in front caster, rear pinion angle, and overall wheelbase after installation.
Kit Includes:
- Front and rear JSPEC dual-rate HD coil springs
- FOX 2.0 IFP Performance Series front shocks (custom-valved)
- FOX 2.0 IFP Performance Series rear shocks (custom-valved)
- J-Flex upper and lower front control arms with rubber bushings

- Extended rear sway bar links
- Front and rear bump stop extensions
- Front caster cam locks
- All required hardware
Important Notes:
- Yields 3.5" of lift on Sport/Sahara models; approximately 3" on Rubicon models due to factory ride height differences
- An aftermarket front driveshaft is strongly recommended due to the additional suspension travel this system provides
- A professional wheel alignment is required after installation
- All JKS components are designed, tested, and manufactured in the USA
The J-Krawl system builds off the factory suspension mounting points and upgrades the entire suspension front to rear, making it an ideal platform for running 35" to 37" tires. Whether you're rock crawling, trail riding, or commuting, the JSPEC198KFP delivers the geometry correction and damping performance your Gladiator JT deserves.
