Just starting a thread for all things related to the Metalcloak suspension systems.

I PM'ed them on facebook today. They told me the current ETA for their 3.5" lift in 4-6wks out. After that once comes to market they will work on a 2.5" lift, followed by a higher lift.

So good news. It's coming!!

Thank you for sharing this! I am on the fence about the fabtech one only because I originally wanted a 3.5" lift. Theirs is 3", which really isn't that different. But it really isn't available yet either. ‍♂

MC is one of, if not the highest quality lifts out there. It is worth the wait. My JK is entirely MC products and ive beaten the piss out of them. No issues so far besides needing to grease the control arm bushings (I have about 100,000 miles on those control arms and never did maintenance on them lol).

Getting anxious for this. A lot of people waiting on Teraflex or MetalCloak, whoever hits the market first.

2 weeks in thought I'd update. MC just told me the only thing that they're waiting on are the springs. Still said 4-6 weeks though.

Arms and track bar for the rear are done, I figure they'll be using the same front end components from the JL.

Half of my wait to get a Gladiator is just the aftermarket stuff. I'll definitely be going w/ the MC setup when it comes out. I have the 2.5" GC Lite on my JKU and it rides so well I am kind of scared to sell the Jeep and move to a factory setup again.

I wouldn't run anything but a Metalcloak trackbar and control arms. Their Duroflex bushings are practically maintenance-free. I was given a free Gladiator adjustable front track bar, but I will only run a trackbar with a Duroflex bushing.
