Exchanging the capable stock suspension system (front-passenger corner pictured) of this Jeep Wrangler JL Unlimited Rubicon for the even more capable Skyjacker 3.5–4-inch Suspension Lift Dual Rate Long Travel Lift Kit System with Skyjacker Black MAX shocks and Skyjacker 2–4-inch Single Flex Lower Links gave our rig a whole new set of powerful legs with which to climb over obstacles.
We’ve watched as the new Jeep JL Wrangler continues to conquer just about everything in sight. At the same time, the off-road aftermarket has been responding to Jeep’s new Wrangler by cranking out hundreds of new parts and accessories to upgrade and outfit one of the newest stars in the Jeep universe. We’ve been especially keen on all the new suspension and handling products for the Jeep Wrangler JL that have become available over the last year or so. Skyjacker jumped into that arena early on and has continued to refine its JL suspension system offerings, including one of its newest kits that’s specially designed for the Jeep Wrangler JL Unlimited Rubicon— Skyjacker’s (skyjacker.com) 3.5–4-inch Suspension Lift Dual Rate Long Travel Lift Kit System with Skyjacker Black MAX shocks.
