Replacement HD Front LCA Frame Bracket for Jeep Wrangler JL & Gladiator JT
The Artec Industries JL/JT Replacement HD Front LCA Frame Bracket puts a serious mount under the front lower control arm of a Jeep Wrangler JL (2018+) or Gladiator JT (2020+). The factory frame bracket sits low and takes direct hits, and once it bends or tears the front arm no longer pulls from where the geometry says it should. Artec's answer is 1/4" boxed steel plate, CNC laser cut and bent from Jeep's own 3D OE data, with an integrated skid under the joint and a top-access grease fitting so maintenance stays easy after the swap. It is a repair for damaged frames and a preventive upgrade for rigs that see rocks regularly.
Features
- Formed from 1/4" boxed steel plate for genuine impact resistance at a high-load pickup point
- CNC laser cut and CNC bent from factory 3D OE data for a precise, repeatable fit
- Integrated bottom skid shields the lower control arm joint without limiting its travel
- Top-access grease fitting keeps the joint serviceable once installed
- 2.625" mounting width with 5/8" bolt holes to match the front lower arm
- One bracket covers both Wrangler JL and Gladiator JT front frames
- Weld-on installation with a PDF install guide from Artec
- Made in the USA (SKU JL4596)
Verify the damage is at the frame-side front LCA mount and confirm your arm hardware matches the 5/8" bolt and 2.625" width before ordering; the bracket welds to the frame, so plan on professional structural welding and paint over the finished work. Handle the rear mounts with the JT HD Rear LCA Frame Bracket or the JL HD Rear LCA Frame Bracket, and if the whole underside is getting refreshed, see the rest of our frame brackets and control arm parts.

Replacement HD Front LCA Frame Bracket for Jeep Wrangler JL & Gladiator JT FAQs
Does this fit both the Wrangler and the Gladiator?
Yes. The front frame-side lower control arm mount is shared between the platforms, so this bracket fits the Jeep Wrangler JL (2018 and up) and the Gladiator JT (2020 and up). Confirm your control arm hardware matches the bracket's 2.625" mounting width and 5/8" bolt holes before install.
How involved is the installation?
This is a weld-on bracket: the damaged factory mount comes off and this one is welded to the frame using Artec's PDF install guide. Because it is structural welding that locates a suspension arm, it should be done by a professional, with the finished area primed and painted.
What does the integrated skid do?
The bracket carries a bottom skid plate under the lower control arm joint, so rocks slide past instead of hammering the joint directly. The skid is shaped to leave the arm's full range of movement intact, and a top-access grease fitting keeps the joint easy to service with everything installed.
