Question:
Hi there, I need advice. I have a 2020 Rubicon JLU Stock. I attached a Black Widow 600 Lbs capacity motorcycle carrier. I am trying to transport a 300- 340lb motorcycle. I have a a aftermarket steel bumper with a 2” Class III hitch. When I tried to load the bike the angle of the carrier, The angle of the carrier attached changed from 90 degree angle to a -8 degree droop. Would a Gen-Y with a multiple with a bolt-on Stabilizer kit mounted to under to the frame work? To stop the Droop? What about upgrading my rear springs? Are there any products I should using? Any info you could give me would be helpful. Thanks,

Expert Reply:
You're going to want to go for a suspension upgrade to level out the rear end of your Jeep. For this I recommend the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System item # TJFTJ. These rubber springs have a 2,400 lbs capacity that will keep your rear end level when you are transporting your motorcycle.
The Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System item # TJFTJ mount inside your rear coil springs. I have linked the installation instructions below.
The stabilizers on the Gen-Y Torsion 2-Ball Mount item # 325-GH-1424 attach to your Jeep's frame so you would still have the bad angle, that would probably be worse with this mount, with your motorcycle and carrier attached.
