The JSPEC117PS pairs JKS geometry-corrected short-arm control arms with Fox 2.5 Performance Series reservoir shocks and standard-rate coil springs. It's the trail-focused, stock-weight configuration of the J-Venture 2.5\" lineup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Result\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2.5\" of lift with JKS geometry-corrected short-arm control arms. Standard-rate coils deliver a softer initial spring feel and greater droop travel compared to HD coils — maximizing articulation for stock-weight builds. Fox 2.5 reservoir shocks provide consistent damping and heat dissipation on extended trail runs. No differential drop required. Adjustable control arms allow precise alignment post-install.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eVerified Fitment (OFAS Standard)\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFits:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2018–2026 Jeep Wrangler JL 4-Door (Unlimited) — Gas Models, Stock-Weight Configuration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDoes NOT fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e JL 2-Door | JL Diesel (EcoDiesel) | JL 4xe Hybrid | JK (2007–2018) | Gladiator JT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoil Note:\u003c\/strong\u003e Standard-Rate — NOT recommended for builds with steel bumpers, winch, or heavy roof rack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSystem Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLift Height: 2.5\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSystem: J-Venture Short-Arm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShock: Fox 2.5 Performance Series w\/ Reservoir\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoil Rate: Standard-Rate — optimized for stock-weight JL 4-Door builds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControl Arms: JKS geometry-corrected short-arm control arms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSKU: JSPEC117PS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation \u0026amp; Fabrication Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShort-arm system does not require differential drop or relocation. Professional 4-wheel alignment required post-installation. Torque all control arm hardware to JKS specification after a 500-mile break-in.

Recommended backspacing: 4.5\"–4.75\" on a 17\"×9\" or 18\"×9\" wheel. At 2.5\" of lift with standard-rate coils, fender clearance with 35s is workable on a stock-weight rig — confirm tire brand and tread width before finalizing wheel selection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eEngineering Question\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003eComparing the J-Venture 2.5\" std-rate short-arm against the J-Konnect 2.5\" std-rate long-arm for a stock-weight JL 4-Door — both run Fox 2.5 reservoir shocks, so what's the real-world difference? The J-Venture installs faster and skips the differential drop, but the J-Konnect's long-arm geometry delivers superior caster correction and articulation at the same lift height. If install simplicity is the priority, the J-Venture is the right call. If you want the best geometry at 2.5\", step up to the J-Konnect. Contact OFAS with your build priorities and we'll confirm which platform fits your use case.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/blockquote\u003e","brand":"JKS Manufacturing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51444662174017,"sku":"JSPEC117PS","price":2012.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/1284\/1793\/files\/JSPEC117PS_0-BKWD.jpg?v=1772726507","url":"https:\/\/obsidianforgedautosupply.com\/products\/jks-jspec117ps","provider":"Obsidian Forged Auto Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
