JEEP YJ 8” CRAWLER SYSTEM
In the late eighties and early nineties the Jeep YJ
dominated the trail only to be replaced by the
more capable TJ in 1997. Fabtech revitalizes
the capability of the YJ with the introduction of
our high end 8” Crawler System for 1987-1995
Jeep YJ’s. As a bolt on installation this system
replaces the factory front leaf springs with our
Dirt Logic 2.5 Coilover shocks and tubular
Radius Arms as found in our TJ Crawler
systems. The rear features a spring over design
with Soft Ride Leaf Springs, extended length
Shackles and a Floating Traction Bar. This
Crawler suspension can be order as a complete
system or as a separate front and rear system.
Install this Crawler system with our optional
high clearance 1/ 4” thick steel
transfer case skid pan on your YJ
and you’ll leave the TJ guys behind. |

FRONT SUSPENSION
Heavy duty 1 /4” thick steel axle and
frame bracketry attaches the thick
wall adjustable Radius Arms to the
factory front axle housing or
aftermarket TJ style axles for heavy
duty trail use. Large 2” diameter
adjustable Radius Arms have a
5/16” thick steel wall with giant 2
5/8” forged link ends for
unsurpassed strength and maximum impact resistance. The tubular Coilover system
secures to the side of the frame and motor mounts providing a solid structure for the
Dirt Logic 2.5 Coilover shock. Installation of these Coilover mounts do not require
cutting of the inner fenderwell, keeping mud and water away from the motor. The
front system also includes a
replacement Trac Bar, Pitman Arm,
Quick Disconnect sway bar links,
bump stops and more. |
 |
REAR SUSPENSION
As an option to the front system our
rear suspension design includes a
bolt on bracket system converting the
leaf springs to the top of the axle. We
provide a 4 leaf Soft Ride Leaf Spring
with nylon glide pads between each
leaf for friction free operation. To work in conjunction with the Soft Ride Leaf Springs
we provide extended length boomerang shackles that offer over 14” of wheel travel
with superior articulation. A weld on Floating Traction Bar system is included to
reduce spring wrap and increase tire traction. This rear system is compatible with the
stock axle housing and most aftermarket housings that have been set up with the
factory YJ leaf spring pad geometry. |
 |
JEEP YJ 3.5” PERFORMANCE SYSTEM
Heavy duty front and rear leaf spring springs
feature nylon glide pads between each leaf for
a friction free ride. Front springs employ 5
leafs while rear springs are comprised of a 4
leaf pack. Front and rear spring eyes are
constructed with a full military
style wrap for superior
strength and dependability. The
transfer case is relocated via billet
spacers that allow the use of the stock
skid plate. This system comes complete
with a drop pitman arm, extended sway
bar links, track bar relocation brackets
and more. |
