Top 5 Suspension Upgrades for Your Lifted Jeep Gladiator

Published on Jul 17, 2024 by LiftedJeeps.com Creative Team

When it comes to enhancing the performance and off-road capabilities of your lifted Jeep Gladiator, investing in quality suspension upgrades can make a world of difference. While it all starts with your lift kit, there are many other things you can do to upgrade your suspension. Here at LiftedJeeps.com, we understand the thrill of conquering rugged terrain and pushing your vehicle to new heights. So today, we'll explore the top five suspension upgrades that can take your lifted Jeep Gladiator to the next level of off-road performance.

Lift Kits

If all starts, of course, with the lift kit itself. In order to get a lifted Jeep Gladiator, you’re going to have to lift it. And almost no custom off-road vehicle is complete without a lift kit. You can elevate your Jeep Gladiator's ground clearance and off-road prowess with a quality lift kit. Choose from various lift heights to accommodate larger tires and conquer challenging terrain with ease. Lift kits not only enhance the aesthetics of your vehicle but also improve its overall performance off-road.

You’ll probably want to spend the most time on this step here before looking at anything else, so take your time researching the different types of lift kits and determining what the best height will be. To give you an example, three of the main types of lift kits include leveling kits, coil-overs and drop-down lifts. Each one has its advantages and disadvantages and will be the right choice for different types of vehicles, it all comes down to your preference and what else you’ve equipped or plan to equip your Jeep Gladiator with.

Shocks & Struts

The next step would be to upgrade your shocks and struts, as these are an integral part of your off-road suspension system and will let you enhance your lifted Jeep Gladiator's ride quality and handling. High-performance shock absorbers can provide better damping control, reduce body roll and improve stability on rough terrain, ensuring a smoother and more controlled driving experience. But be careful, sometimes shock and strut upgrades are already included in the lift kit so you might not need an additional upgrade. Plus, you always want to make sure your different upgrades will work well together, so always do your research before choosing an upgrade.

Heavy-Duty Springs

Upgraded coil springs are almost a guarantee to come in your lift kit, so once again you’ll want to make sure this upgrade is necessary after installing your lift kit. But even if your kit did include springs, if there’s a way to upgrade to even heavier-duty springs to support the added weight of your lifted Jeep Gladiator and improve load-carrying capacity. Heavy-duty springs can help prevent sagging, enhance suspension articulation and maintain optimal ride height throughout all of your off-road adventures.

Adjustable Control Arms

Fine-tune your lifted Jeep Gladiator's suspension geometry and alignment with adjustable control arms. These components allow for precise adjustments to caster and camber angles, optimizing wheel alignment and steering response for improved handling and stability on and off the road. Although rarer, it is still possible that your lift kit included a control arm upgrade, so once again make sure to do all of your research to see what’s necessary and what you can upgrade on further before making any decisions or purchases.

Sway Bar

Reduce body roll and improve cornering performance with sway bar upgrades for your lifted Jeep Gladiator. Upgraded sway bars help minimize body sway during turns and off-camber situations, enhancing overall stability and control when navigating challenging terrain. Upgrading these is a great way to further protect them as they can sometimes be vulnerable while tackling off-road adventures.

Investing in top-quality suspension upgrades is essential for maximizing the performance and off-road capabilities of your lifted Jeep Gladiator. Whether you're seeking improved ground clearance, enhanced ride quality or better handling on rugged terrain, the right suspension enhancements can transform your driving experience.
