MetalCloak is an American manufacturer based in California that has been designing and building off-road components exclusively for Jeeps for over two decades. Every part is CAD-engineered, laser cut, welded and finished in-house, and the company backs its structure and coating with a lifetime warranty.
Upper Front 6Pak Shock Mount Kit - Jeep TJ/LJ Wrangler
Upper front mounts that adapt the TJ to 6Pak shocks. The kit also includes a bar pin eliminator, which replaces the factory bar-pin bushing with a clevis and removes the most common source of play there.
Gold Zinc finish
Steel parts are gold zinc plated. Zinc protects the steel electrochemically even where it is scratched, and the surface stays paintable. On a twenty-year-old Jeep that matters more than on a new one.
Specification
- Upper front shock mounts: 3/16" (4.8 mm) hot rolled steel
- Bar pin eliminator: A36 steel
- Finish: Gold Zinc
- Fitment: Jeep TJ and LJ Wrangler 1997-2006
After installation: the manufacturer recommends a suspension specialist aligns the vehicle after any work on the suspension or steering.
Installation
Easy. About 1 hour.
A note on vehicle age
TJs and LJs are now twenty to nearly thirty years old. Expect seized bolts and corroded frame threads when removing factory parts - soak the joints in penetrant beforehand and use anti-seize on reassembly. Several reviews of TJ parts are really about this rather than about the part.
We import this product directly from the MetalCloak factory in the USA. Please contact us for the current lead time before placing an order.
