Rock Krawler 3" X Factor JT System

[frost]

@Rock Crawler Suspension, Anything coming to Simi Valley Ca.? My wife bought this lift for me for Christmas so she is more anxious then i`am......well maybe not quite.

Actually on this note, also in Simi Valley. Ordered 4.5" pro no limits mid-arm for my JT on 1/8/21 but still haven't seen anything yet. Wondering if lead times are greater than 12 weeks?

thanks,
David

Lead times are still holding at 12 weeks, more than likely this means your kit is out the door in the next day or two, assuming there was no delay in the retailer sending us a purchase order.

Update: Went through installing my first set of bushings on the rear arms. Was able to get the larger red ones removed/pressed with a workshop vice and prybar, pretty straight forward. I did notice that replacement part was a solid colored material (red joints) vs translucent material. The lower arms were mushy on both ends where the uppers were not, i may have a mixed batch of original material. Didn't take nearly as long as expected, i also did one arm at a time so it was quick to realign and torque. Check the triangulated rear mount, one of the threaded bolts into the axel housing had loosened up a bit, i may be adding some locktite if it happens again.

You should add it since it happened once
Suspension isn't something to play with

Rockkrawler, do you have a Pro-X differential mount for a Dana 60 ? Or shpuld I have the suspension guys modify/ fab another one up ?

We don't yet. It is on the list for engineering but probably still 6 months out.

Okay thank you

Is it possible to order rock krawler decals anywhere? Really loving the ProX kit on my gladiator.

Yes, we are authorized by RK to make all their graphics. Send me a message or email and I’ll get you set up!

@Rock Krawler Suspension did anyone ever mount the cradle in the rear without a lift? Curious as to the outcome.

Not that I'm aware of. They would still need to use bump stops to stop the arms from hitting the evap cannister and the exhaust so it would be pretty limited on up travel in stock form.

Oh no. Here we go again. Just before I installed my 3.5 Pro X No Limits kit I discovered that one set of control arms were of old stock and had the older bushings in it so I bought and replaced them all before the installation into my JT. NOW I need to do ALL OF THEM??? Not very happy with that and I don’t blame RK. I have dealt with suppliers in my full time job and they‘ve substitute materials without consent and THEY are held responsible for ALL COSTS to make things right for our customers. Sad the same isn’t true here. Ugh. My kit has been in for about 1 year now and all I can say is I’ve been trying to get rid of squaking for a long time now. It’s been driving me nuts trying to track it down. Now I know. Hopefully this will end it AND a newly developed slight knocking in the rear I can’t pinpoint Hopefully this will resolve it. Calling RK as soon as they open today to get on the list for replacement bushing kit.
It would be sweet if RK would do an exchange of the entire arms with the right stuff in the joints. Much less labor for the DIY’ers like me. Just set to existing lengths of old ones and bolt ’em back in then get an alignment.

No need to call, I'll PM you my email address. Just email me a copy of your invoice from when you got the kit and a good shipping address.

Well, I called Daystar and got the same slap in the face offer of $75 for compensation. What a f’n joke. Anyone want to start a class action???

 

[jjmstang]

Normally only the lawyers benefit from class action lawsuits
