Rugged Ridge Exhaust Spacer Kit 12-18 Jeep Wrangler JK

Jeep moved the exhaust forward on the 2012 Wrangler. Unfortunately, on Jeeps with 2.5 or more of lift that means their front driveshaft is liable to make contact with the exhaust Y-Pipe melting the CV boot and causing the driveshaft to fail prematurely. The Rugged Ridge Exhaust Spacer Kit for 3.6L Wrangler helps move the Y-pipe further back and increases the amount of front suspension travel from 2.5 to over 5.5, thus saving your driveshaft. The spacers install on the flanges between the front headers and Y-pipe.. The great thing is the kit is easy to install and does not require permanent modification to the exhaust. Hardware included. Backed by Rugged Ridges exclusive three-year limited warranty. Exhaust Spacer Kit; Incl. 2 Pipes And Hardware; For Use w/2.5 in. Or More Suspension Lift;

• No Permanent Modification to Exhaust
• Limited 5 Year Warranty
• Hardware Included
• Bolt On

The Rugged Ridge Exhaust Spacer Kit, part number Rug17606.76, is designed for 2012-2018 Jeep Wrangler JK models equipped with the 3.6L engine and a suspension lift of 2.5 inches or more. On lifted Wranglers, the front driveshaft can contact the exhaust Y-pipe, potentially damaging the CV boot and contributing to premature driveshaft failure. This kit helps create additional clearance by repositioning the Y-pipe farther away from the front driveshaft.
The kit includes two exhaust spacers and the required installation hardware. The spacers install between the front headers and Y-pipe flanges, increasing available front suspension travel from approximately 2.5 inches to more than 5.5 inches. This bolt-on design helps protect the driveshaft while avoiding permanent modifications to the factory exhaust system, making it a practical solution for lifted Jeep applications.
Designed for straightforward installation, the Rugged Ridge Exhaust Spacer Kit uses the existing exhaust mounting points and includes all necessary hardware. It is engineered specifically for compatible 3.6L Jeep Wrangler JK applications and is backed by a limited Rugged Ridge warranty. Verify vehicle year, engine, and suspension lift before installation.
