Every part is CAD-engineered, laser cut, welded and finished in-house, and the company backs its structure and coating with a lifetime warranty.
Long Arm Frame Mount System - Jeep TJ/LJ Wrangler
The frame brackets that move the control arm mounting points further back - this is what turns the factory short arm geometry into a long arm system. The structural core of the build: long arms have nowhere to mount without them.
Specification
- Frame mounts: 1/4" (6.4 mm) hot rolled steel plate
- Weld-in sleeves included
- Finish: black powder coat
- Fitment: Jeep TJ and LJ Wrangler 1997-2006
Note - welding required
The manufacturer rates this as difficult and it requires welding. Do not buy it unless you have access to welding. We can do this work in our workshop.
After installation: the manufacturer recommends a suspension specialist aligns the vehicle after any work on the suspension or steering.
Installation
Difficult; the manufacturer recommends a licensed installer. Cutting and welding required, including at the rear axle. 2-3 hours. We do this work in-house.
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.
Warranty and service
MetalCloak backs its products with a lifetime warranty on structure and coating for the original owner. The warranty does not cover accident damage, incorrect installation or owner-performed modifications. As an authorised dealer we handle the whole claim process for you.
