Reinforced Leaf Springs for Strength and Flex: This kit includes application-tuned, lifted military wrapped leaf springs that breathe new life into your YJ's suspension. The military wrap design reinforces the main leaf for extra strength, while the double-tapered leaves provide improved flex and even load distribution. In the rare event the main leaf fails, this design acts as a fail-safe, letting you safely limp your rig home.

Complete All-Inclusive Upgrade: Everything you need for a full suspension upgrade is included: pitman arm, brake line relocation brackets, tubular transfer case drop kit, track bar drop brackets, bumpstops, boomerang shackles, and front sway-bar links. The transfer case drop maintains proper driveshaft angles to prevent vibration, ensuring smooth, reliable performance.

Balanced Shock Performance: The N3 Series shock absorbers, nitrogen-charged and application-tuned, deliver smooth on-road handling and exceptional off-road control. These shocks are specifically tested for Jeep YJ applications, giving you confidence over rough terrain and comfort on the highway.

Height, Balance, and Control: With this kit, your Jeep YJ gains increased ground clearance, a level stance, and suspension performance that excels anywhere you take it. Rugged, reliable, and engineered for adventure, this lift kit ensures your Jeep is ready for every trail and every mile.
