Keep track of our latest build at Motobilt Project: Dual Purpose TJ / Motobilt Metal Fabrication Blog Motobilt, Inc.
Our customer came to us with the intention of modifying his Jeep TJ to suit two different needs. He wanted his Jeep to maintain a daily driver capability, but also to be able to perform adequately on the trails. In order to fit both of these needs, we are adding key components that will prevent failures both on and off road.

One of the most common failure points for a Jeep TJ is the stock lower control arm mounts. They are paper thin and do not take well to abuse. When the factory lower control arm mounts tear, break or bend it can leave your Jeep stranded. First on the list of mods for this Jeep is a set of of our Heavy Duty front lower control arm mounts for the Jeep TJ, LJ, XJ, or ZJ

We are also beefing up the front end with a truss and C gussets.

In order to protect the front and rear of the Jeep and provide solid recovery points, we installed the Motobilt Jeep YJ/TJ Competition Front Bumper with stinger

In the rear we replaced the factory bumper with the Motobilt Jeep CJ YJ TJ Rear Rock Crawler Bumper

I need to get these for my fronts

What about the REAR LCA mount? I'm tearing those to hell as well
 
I have the 8.8 sitting in my shop. Trying to decide what brackets I want. What brackets did you guys use? Or did you just fab that part and not sell it yet?

Jeep TJ 4 Link kit Pre Order!

Building high quality fabricated products for offroad vehicles is the mission. The Motobilt Jeep TJ Four Link Suspension Kit consists of an assembly that mounts ot the frame and houses both the upper and lower links for the front and rear 4 link suspension. This kit was designed to make it easier to install 4 linked suspension by taking out the guess work.

The kit is fabricated from high strength CNC laser cut steel plate. The main bodies where the links bolt in and the skid are all 1/4" steel plate for ultimate strength. Some of the secondary plates to box in the link mounts and internal gusseting are 3/16" steel plate. The design comes to you fully welded and ready to install into the Jeep. Once receiving the kit you will be required to weld the parts in place. The parts are located very easily with the factory skid plate mounting holes.

This is a Pre Order sale price! Once the first kit ships the Pre Order price will end. Existing orders should ship in 7-10 business days. New orders will ship approximately by the end of August.
