Rock Krawler 3" X Factor JT System

[Rock Krawler Suspension]

Do you happen to have any pics of the rear control arms where they mount to the frame?
Thanks!

Jeep is filthy in these pics but I believe it shows what you're looking for.

I keep going back and forth between Metal Cloak and RK. The bushings on the Metal Cloak arms and track bars are maintenance free and reliable, the RK bushings do need maintenance and for the most part seem to be reliable. I like the RK springs the three and four rate springs make sense and i dig the Pro-X rear system.

I`m waiting for some Black Friday sales so hopefully by that time my mind will be made up.

Most of our retailers will be going hard on BF sales, Our office will be closed, although I'll be in the back shop refreshing my tow rig.

Agreed. I am unfamiliar with the Gladiator frame mount (still waiting for ours) and this seems to be an area of substantial added stress with the triangular system.
Thanks

The frame side mounts are way more tough than JL/JK/TJ/LJ ever thought of being.

2 are used to hold the parking brake cables and they will still be used for that, the other 2 are open from the factory. It might be something that will be used in diesel models but on gas trucks it is empty.

We've finally finished designing and testing our 3" X Factor systems and are getting everything set for production. Here's a few images to wet your whistle. http://rockkrawler.com/suspension/2...x-factor-series-mid-arm-systems/new-category/

very nice setup. Are you going to install the Pro-X on this truck? I just ordered the Pro so looking forward to receiving it.

Yes, that was the first test mule for the ProX kit, it started as an X Factor and made the swap right after Toledo Jeep Fest.

I did see that, I just read that they are looking at doing 5" springs, I'm wondering if that will just be a spring change?

Yes, you can fit them with factory fenders but if you want to have up travel for offroad, it would be recommended to trim out the inner sections of the factory fender

Good to know. Are you thinking the only difference between the 3 and 5” will be the springs? How soon before the 5” will be available to order? Thanks for your help. Loved my 3.5” on my JL. Looking forward to trying the JT stuff out.
