Lets see all those Gladiators with lifts and bigger tires!

I got the cool crate.

Wait. I think you're doing it wrong. You can't put that on your 2-seater. You better send it to me.

I haven't yet put the shocks through their full capabilities, but on-road on the soft setting rides excellent. Pretty comparable to stock, slightly firmer. Very pleased so far.
As far as the kit itself, I got the diesel kit so take that into account, but I'm overall super pleased. Clayton usually takes out only part of the factory rake; I noticed about 1/2in LESS rake than factory, but still a decent rake. I often have a lot of weight in the bed, so I'm OK with some rake. I think my crappy cellphone camera, plus my sloped driveway might make the pic seem more raked than reality.
Clayton has a solid reputation for high quality and customer service. So far, they've definitely demonstrated that by me. Be aware that they run much higher than advertised. My 3.5in kit ended up giving me almost 6in of lift.

Awesome, thanks. I have a JTRD also, and have been holding off doing a lift until more diesel specific springs became available. Clayton is definitely at the top if my list.

If I could get those springs on, it would be a lot easier to work on...

Send you which, the lift kit, or the sports car? My wife is raising the point about having redundant stick-shift convertibles more and more frequently now that you mention it...

Mopar 2" lift, Ion Series 171 17x9 wheels w zero offset, Kenda Klever A/T 315s:

More poke than I wanted, but I got such a good deal on the light alloy wheels that I couldn't resist!

Where did you get your lug nuts and wheel locks. The Mcgards I got for those wheels are too short.

Here are the lug nuts.

According to Ion, "The 171 will require the use of a 60 degree conical seat lug nut."

Thanks very much. Did you use wheel locks too, and if so what were they?

 

[22_Sarge_Sport]

I did not.

I was back and forth between 33-35s. I cannot express enough how happy I am that I chose 35s. Part of me wants 37s but I don’t want all the hassle that comes with switching to 37s like gearing and such. Also, I ran the 35s for weeks without the leveling kit and had zero issues rubbing. The level kit is $100 and took an hour to install. It’s worth it to me.

Stick with your 35s.

Looks great!
Would you say you got more than 3.5” of lift?

 

[GobiGladiator7]

It’s a sport S max tow…..it’s closer to 4inches. Clayton gave me a heads up on it when I had spoke with them
