Rock Krawler 3.5 Inch T-Rex 6 Inch Stretch Hybrid System - Wrangler JL 2-Door

This is the T-Rex hybrid with the rear stretch, for the 2018 and newer Jeep Wrangler JL 2-door. Jeep's fuel tank rules out a full long arm front on the 2-door, so Rock Krawler pairs a high-clearance mid arm front with an ultra-high-clearance 3-link rear conversion that adds a 6 inch rear stretch. The stretch is there for one reason, and Rock Krawler says it plainly: more stable climbing on steep ascents.

Why this system

• Full high-clearance 4-link mid arm front suspension paired with a 3-link long arm rear.
• The 3-link rear with a track bar removes the natural bind of the factory parallel 4-link rear, so the axle moves without jacking.
• X2 rear geometry gains 4.5 inches of clearance under the rear axle without giving up rear shock travel, raises the rear roll center and adds adjustable anti-squat.
• Every control arm uses Adventure Series joints, so there is nothing to grease.
• Triple-rate coil springs with correction seats for a comfortable ride on the street.
• The 6 inch rear stretch allows much more stable climbing on steep ascents.
• Lifetime warranty coverage.

Pick your package

• Base System (No Shocks). The kit as listed above with no shocks, for the builder who already has shocks picked out. Bump stops come with every shock option; with this one they're ordered separately.
• Stage 1 (RRD 2.25 inch IFP shocks). Rock Krawler's in-house shock: a 2.25 inch hard anodized fluted aluminum body with the cooling surface of a 2.5 inch shock, a 3/4 inch hard chrome stainless steel shaft, billet aluminum valving and dual DU shaft bearings. Serviceable, rebuildable and revalveable.
• Coilover Comp System, Stage 1. Coilovers up front, coil springs and a shock in the rear: 2.625 inch RRD racing coilovers with remote reservoirs up front (12 inches of travel, about 13.3 inches of front axle travel) and matching 2.625 inch RRD racing shocks in the rear (11.5 inches of travel, about 12.8 inches of rear axle travel). Rock Krawler pitches it at owners who want coilover adjustability but still carry small loads or tow small trailers. Includes (2) triple-rate coil springs and (2) correction seats.
• Coilover Comp System, Stage 2 (Fast CD). The same Comp System layout and travel as Stage 1, with Fast CD (compression damping) adjusters on the coilovers and the rear shocks for more tuning range.

Fitment and what else you'll need

Fits the 2018 and newer Jeep Wrangler JL 2-door. Rock Krawler lists it as valid for the 3.6L V6 and the 2.0L turbo.

Rock Krawler bases all lift heights on Rubicon models in a standard build (front bumper and winch, rear bumper and full-size spare). If you delete the spare, drop 1 inch of rear coil lift height; for an overland or heavily loaded rear build, go up 1 inch.

• Sport and Sahara: for 37 and 38 inch tall tires, Rock Krawler recommends 3.5 inches of backspacing. With full OEM fenders that means 37 inch tires; with trimmed or high-lined fenders, 38 inch tires (3 inch bump stop height recommended).
• Rubicon: 37 inch tall tires want 4.5 inches of backspacing and 40 inch tall tires want 3.5 inches. With full OEM fenders, 37 or 38 inch tires fit; with trimmed or high-lined fenders, 40 inch tires fit (3 inch bump stop height recommended).
• Requires welding of the rear long arm mounts.
• Requires removing the OEM frame side upper and lower rear control arm mounts and the OEM axle side rear lower control arm and track bar mounts.
• Requires modifying the OEM rear shock mounts and welding on the raised rear upper shock mounts.
• Requires major body work modifications and the Next Venture Motorsports Rear Stretch Armor Package.
• Rock Krawler recommends a new front and rear C.V. driveshaft for any front shock with a max extended length over 29 inches.
• Limiting straps are recommended once the vehicle is set up, to avoid over-extending suspension components.
