Everything from China is delayed. I hope you get them before you move. That can be a nightmare if you don't....good luck!

Ha! that is great. How are those tires on the road? Are they loud? I am considering them to replace my Trepador radials.

Good deal! I ordered the matching Rock Krawler rear springs and new shocks so I can be rid of the Fabtech stuff completely. I should have just ordered the whole lift kit to begin with.....Anyway, I am glad you got yours sorted out as well!

Rock krawler Springs are significantly better. Call Marcus at River City Offroad he can get them to you quickly. They're also an inch longer even though both companies advertise a 3 in lift. My Fabtech springs actually bent.....the ride with Rock Krawler is so much smoother.

So I put the new Springs and pads on today. Totally fixed the problem. The Fab Tech Spring was completely bent. What's also amazing to me is the fact that the Fabtech is supposed to be a 3-inch lift and so is the Rock Krawler but the Rock Krawler is about an inch taller than the Fabtech...

Yes I did. Tomorrow I am replacing my fabtech springs with Rock Krawler though and will be removing the spacers. It was not even noticeable with them added.

You are correct the pad is destroyed. The picture makes the swaybar mount look crooked but it perfectly straight. That's what happens with the shitty cameras in our phones these days. I ended up buying new front springs from River City Offroad. Got some Rock Krawler springs with new pads...

Nice rack! is this made in the good ole USA?

I just wanted to give a shout out to Marcus at River City Offraod in the great state of Texas. He is super friendly, knowledgable on everything Jeeps and is an all around good guy. He can find pretty much whatever you are looking for that a lot of other companies don't have and ships it quick...

still haven't received my shipping label. Called numerous times, voicemail for their system is full constantly, sent email through their website early today. No response.....I will never recommend them to anyone.

Nope not a diesel. I will take a closer look again today. thanks!

I have a JTR with the Fabtech 3in sport 2 lift. My front passenger spring is even worse than yours. What did you do to correct it? https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/forum/threads/i-am-assuming-this-is-a-bad-thing.47500/

I think I'm just gonna order a new set from River City Offroad tomorrow. Thanks everyone for the assistance!!

Lmao yup its me

One other change I did make recently was adding control arm drop brackets. I put them on using the hole that is correct for my lift size so it should theoretically be good to go. There are three settings though so I could try changing that maybe for a shorter height lift.

One thing to add. The gap on the spring pad is only about a quarter of an inch I can't imagine a quarter of an inch would make that much of a difference in the spring load and causing it to bend like that. The top spring pad is perfect. The bottom spring pat is actually straight it's just the...

Okay here are some more pictures. I put it up on Jack stands and let it droop completely, put on my spring compressors and tried to spin it a little but it didn't budge. I will have to disconnect the shock as mentioned and give it another go.

I will pull the wheel off and take a look and get some better pictures.. It does possibly look from the these pictures that it might be unseated. Gotta finish my burrito bowl for lunch though :) before I find out.

Was washing my truck at the power wash station today. I was cleaning the front suspension and noticed a huge bow in the spring on the passenger side. The other side is perfectly straight. I am assuming my Fabtech spring is bad. But I have no idea as I am not sure what would cause this. Any ideas...
