Spring rate should be matched to your constant accessory load, not just your unladen vehicle weight. Front load additions such as a steel bull bar, winch and driving light bar push the front closer to its rated capacity, while rear items like a tray, canopy, dual battery tray, water tank and long-range fuel tank affect rear spring choice. Tell us your fitted and planned accessories and we'll confirm whether the standard front coil and rear leaf spring rate in this kit suits your setup.
Fitment should be carried out by a qualified suspension installer or an experienced DIY mechanic with the correct tools, given the remote reservoir brackets and leaf spring U-bolts involved. A wheel alignment is mandatory after fitting to bring camber, caster and toe back within factory tolerance at ride height. Allow a 500km bedding-in period for the springs to settle to their final ride height before final alignment. Many Gladiator JT owners pair this kit with upgraded control arms to correct driveline and steering geometry at 2" of lift.
Dobinsons has developed 4WD suspension in Australia for decades, testing components against local conditions rather than relying on overseas data alone. This MRA kit is backed by Dobinsons' manufacturer warranty and supplied with the fitment guidance our team provides on every order. Browse the full Dobinsons suspension range to compare this MRA kit against Dobinsons' foam cell and IMS options for the Gladiator JT.
This kit suits Gladiator JT owners running a loaded tray, canopy or touring setup who want external damping adjustment to match empty and loaded driving. It's also a fit for tradespeople carrying variable daily loads and tourers running roof-top tents, awnings and long-range fuel. If your load varies significantly trip to trip, ask us about pairing this kit with airbag suspension for extra load-levelling control.
This Dobinsons MRA kit is dispatched from local Australian stock, and our team can confirm spring rate and shock adjustment settings for your specific accessory load before you order. Browse our full lift kit range or get in touch for fitment advice on your Gladiator JT.

Yes, this Dobinsons MRA kit is built specifically for the Jeep Gladiator JT built from 2018 onward. It uses the JT's factory coil spring mounting points at the front and factory leaf spring hangers at the rear, so no cutting or drilling is required. If you're unsure of your build date or trim variant, contact our team or use our Gladiator JT parts finder to confirm fitment before ordering.
This kit provides a level 2" lift, front and rear, over the Gladiator JT's stock ride height. The lift comes from the vehicle-specific front coil springs and rear leaf springs combined with the correct-length MRA shock absorbers. Actual ride height can vary slightly depending on accessory load, which is why spring rate selection matters.
Please note that all assembled struts are dispatched at a height based on our experience and the manufacturer’s specifications for the advertised lift. Coil springs and leaf springs are also manufactured according to the advertised height and constant-load rating. Actual vehicle height may vary depending on the vehicle and the weight of fitted accessories. Further adjustment may therefore be required after installation. The installer may use coil spacers or adjust the struts at their discretion to achieve the desired height. We are not responsible for vehicle-specific height variations or any additional adjustments required after installation.
The kit includes 2 x Dobinsons MRA 3-Way Adjustable front shocks and 2 x rear shocks, both with 50mm-bore remote reservoirs, plus 2" lift front coil springs and rear leaf springs with mounting hardware. U-bolts for the rear leaf springs and reservoir brackets are included. Upper control arms are not included and are sold separately if needed for your setup.
Yes, the rear leaf springs in this kit are selected to support constant accessory and towball loads typical of Gladiator JT touring and work setups. The 3-way adjustable rear shocks let you increase low-speed compression damping to control rear squat under load. For frequent heavy towing with a variable payload, ask our team whether adding airbag suspension alongside this kit suits your combination.
At a 2" lift, most Gladiator JT owners retain factory control arms without major driveline angle issues, but geometry correction improves handling and reduces wear at height. We recommend upgraded control arms if you're running larger tyres or doing frequent highway towing, as adjustable arms let you dial in caster more precisely. Our team can advise based on your specific tyre size and driving use.
Yes, a wheel alignment is mandatory after installing this kit. Camber, caster and toe all change once the Gladiator JT sits at its new 2" ride height, and correct alignment protects tyre wear and steering feel. We recommend aligning the vehicle after the suggested 500km bedding-in period, once the springs have settled.
Dobinsons offers this MRA kit with spring rates suited to standard and accessorised Gladiator JT setups, and our team can advise on rear leaf spring options if your rear load differs from standard. Tell us your fitted accessories, such as tray weight, canopy, water tank and fuel tank, so we can confirm the correct spring pairing. This ensures the 2" lift is maintained under your actual constant load rather than sagging once loaded.
A 2" lift on the Gladiator JT typically creates clearance for a moderate increase in tyre diameter over factory size, though exact clearance depends on wheel offset and body trimming. We recommend confirming your intended tyre and wheel combination with our team before ordering so we can flag any rubbing points at full articulation. Fender trimming may still be needed for larger tyre and wheel combinations.
This kit is covered by Dobinsons' manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. As an authorised Dobinsons stockist, 4WD Suspension also provides fitment support and warranty assistance direct from our Australian team. Full warranty terms are confirmed at time of purchase and vary slightly by component.
Yes, the 3-way adjustable damping lets you set the low-speed compression and rebound for a comfortable unladen ride for daily commuting. You can then increase compression damping when loaded for touring or work use, without swapping components. This adjustability is the main reason MRA kits suit owners who split their time between daily driving and loaded off-road trips.
