Clayton 1.5 level kit installed JTR

[Sarthree]

Hello:
I wanted to put this up for a reference for those looking at the Clayton 1.5 leveling kit. When it was done at first I didn’t like the stance and added a 3/4 inch spacer in the back. I attached a pic of it without the tires and the lift before the spacer. It looks like it squats by I put a level on it and it was level. Optical illusion. I love the stance and Clayton was great. Ended up with about a 2 1/2 inch lift in the front. I also have a winch up front.

Thanks for the info! Mines in the garage getting ready to go on! How's the ride vs stock?

Do you have a pic of the front springs because mine don't look like they were installed right thank you.

Photo one definitely does mess with my eyes….. level on the bed rails?

It looks great with the tires! But the stock tires…. ? looks like it’s squatting for sure!

Did you keep the stock shocks or go with aftermarkets or extensions?

Never mind I see you have Bilsteins in the front.

In the pic that doesn’t look level, I litterally put a level on the rails and on the bed and it was dead even

I’m quite happy with the bilstiens i put on there.

Something seems off about this pic, is this the spring looking up?

Oh- man that’s a total illusion!

Such a trip how it does look level with the larger tires!

@Jakeyou That doesn’t look seated correctly, did you use the stock isolator? Sorry this is dark, but a quick vid of mine

 

[Jakeyou]

Yes stock isolators. Is yours diesel or gas? Thank you for the vid.
