Suspension Parts for Jeep CJ7
Shocks, Springs & Bushings for Confident Handling (1976–1986).
Why the Jeep CJ7 Suspension Needs Regular Attention.
The suspension of the Jeep CJ7 carries the vehicle's full weight while absorbing constant twisting forces off-road and continuous vibration on the street. Leaf springs lose tension and sag over the years, noticeably changing ground clearance and handling. Rubber bushings at spring eyes, shackles, and the sway bar harden, crack, or disintegrate completely, causing rattles and imprecise steering feel. Shocks lose their damping force, so the vehicle keeps bouncing after hitting bumps. Body bushings between frame and tub compress, ball joints develop play, and bump stops wear down, letting the axle strike the frame under hard compression. Regular maintenance or targeted replacement of these parts keeps handling predictable, spreads tire wear evenly, and keeps your CJ7 controllable both on the road and off it.
- Shocks & Boots: The Bilstein gas shocks noticeably improve damping, complemented by protective shock absorber boots.
- Sway Bar: The front sway bar link and matching sway bar bushing set keep the body stable through corners.
- Body Bushings & Lift Kits: The complete body and suspension bushing set plus the body lift kit for extra wheel-well clearance.
- Leaf Springs & Spring Plates: The heavy-duty front leaf spring pack and the leaf spring plate for a solid spring foundation.
- Shackles & Spring Bushings: The front shackle kit along with the leaf spring bushing set for a play-free spring mount.
- Ball Joints & Bump Stops: The ball joint kit and the bump stop protect axle and frame under hard compression.
