  • Steer Clear of Stabilizer Trouble on Wrangler JKs

    JKS Manufacturing introduces a smart solution to keep your steering stabilizer out of harm’s way

    Alliance, NE – January 2011: The last place you want to lose maneuverability is on the trail, where diagnosing and repairing the problem is often impossible. Nevertheless, this unfortunate occurrence affects Wrangler JK owners more often than you might expect. The problem involves the factory mounting location of the steering stabilizer, which is immediately forward and well below the centerline of the front axle. This leaves the steering stabilizer defenseless against impact damage, and therefore is a disaster waiting to happen.

    The Jeep specialists at JKS Manufacturing have identified this hazard and developed a solution that optimizes steering stabilizer performance while keeping it out of harm’s way. The Steering Stabilizer Relocation Bracket is a heavy-duty, high-clearance bracket that positions the stabilizer in a much safer location where limited ground clearance and contact with obstacles are no longer a concern for the driver.

  • Rusty’s 5.5 JK Wrangler Long Travel Kit

    Rainbow City, AL, 12/27/10 – Rusty’s new JK long travel kit is the result of many hours at the computer, in the shop and extensive testing. We use our proven radius arm system in the front as well as the rear, something we had used only on local custom vehicles. Now, Rusty’s JK system can be installed in most any garage and it does require welding. We spent countless hours developing our new long travel mounting brackets using our keyed and tabbed bracket technology. In simple terms the .250 thick brackets are laser cut and CNC formed. Once formed on the press brake, the keyed and tabbed technology bracket simply go together like a puzzle, this mean precision fit without the use of jigs. (more…)

    Rainbow City, AL, 12/27/10 – The WJ Grand Cherokee is becoming very popular these days and is a very capable trail vehicle that is also very comfortable. Rusty’s has designed and engineered a long travel suspension that bolts on yet still offers the durability, flex and articulation as many custom built suspensions. The long arms reduce the angle of the arms which will greatly improve the ride and improve the handling of a lifted vehicle while on road driving and gives superior articulation for off roading.
