You don’t have to spend thousands to make your rig better. Sometimes, the smallest upgrades deliver the biggest payoff... comfort, control, and confidence that lasts every mile.
These six MetalCloak accessories & tools all clock in under $100, yet every one of them brings real-world performance to your Jeep. Call them budget mods if you want… I call them trail insurance.
Build smart. Spend light. Here’s the gear that’s worth its weight in gold.
1. DuroSpring Jounce Bumpers (JK/JL/JT/TJ)
View Product →
Bottoming out your suspension isn’t just uncomfortable... it’s destructive. MetalCloak’s DuroSpring Jounce Bumpers use micro-cellular urethane to soften those hard hits and protect your suspension from damage.
Why it pays: Every harsh bottom-out stresses control arms, shocks, and mounts. These save all that. Plus, they make your Jeep ride smoother and quieter... worth every penny of the $99 price tag.
Fitment Note: Available for JK, JL, JT, and TJ platforms.
2. JT Gladiator Rear Sway Bar Reinforcement & Repair Bracket
View Product →
If you wheel your Gladiator hard, the factory rear-sway-bar mount can fatigue or even crack under heavy flex. MetalCloak’s reinforcement bracket is laser-cut from ¼-inch hot-rolled steel and finished in their signature gold zinc. It strengthens a known weak spot before it fails.
Why it pays for itself: Prevents costly bracket or axle-mount repairs and keeps your suspension geometry solid where it matters most. One-time install, long-term peace of mind... worth its weight in gold.
Install Tip: Takes about an hour. If the stock bracket shows wear, remove and clamp the MetalCloak plate tight before bolting.
3. Stainless Dead Pedal (JK/JL/JT)
View Product →
A small comfort upgrade that makes a long drive or rocky trail feel way more controlled. The MetalCloak Stainless Dead Pedal gives your left foot a secure perch, reducing fatigue and keeping you balanced behind the wheel.
Why it pays: Improved control means less clutch slip and less driver fatigue. Stainless steel means it’ll outlive your carpet.
Install Time: Under an hour, no drilling or modification required.
4. Molded LED Rear Light Kit (CJ/YJ/TJ/LJ/Trailers)
View Product →
Still running the old boxy tail lights on your classic rig or trailer? This clean, modern LED kit fixes that. Bright, low-profile, and trail-safe, the MetalCloak Molded LED Kit upgrades your lighting with style and safety.
Why it pays: Better visibility, lower power draw, and no wiring headaches. It’s a safety upgrade disguised as a style improvement.
Bonus: Perfect for trailers or swing-out setups with tight clearance.
5. JK & JL Wrangler Unlimited Center Seat Support
View Product →
If you own a four-door JK or JL, the factory rear-seat center section lacks adequate support. MetalCloak’s Center Seat Support solves that with a ⅛-inch aluminum plate that installs easily and reinforces the floorpan under the middle seat.
Why it pays: Prevents sag, improves passenger comfort, and protects the structure under the seat... all for around $44.
Install Time: About 10 minutes using supplied zip ties... no drilling required.
6. MetalCloak Toe Alignment Tool

Proper alignment is critical after trail work or suspension mods, especially for tire wear and handling. The MetalCloak Toe Alignment Tool mounts to your wheel studs, giving you accurate toe readings right at home.
Why it pays: Avoids repeated shop visits for minor toe corrections, extends tire life, and improves handling... all for about $79.
Pro Tip: Use on a level surface, attach tape measures, and adjust until front and back distances match.
