2.5” Clayton Overland Plus Lift
5.13 regear with RCV front and chromoly rear axle shafts
ARB Front and Rear diff covers
38x12.50r17 Nitto Ridge Grappler Load Cs
Fuel Covert 17x9 +1 offset wheels (only 27lbs or I wouldn't have considered Fuel wheels)
It’s perfect and I love it. AAL Fender chop...
No, there are zero useful posts on this, if you search for "kill switch" there's 4 results of useless data with most comments amounting to something of "I wouldn't do this under warranty" or "your key is your kill switch"
Hello. Before going on vacation I found that the highlighted 40a fuse goes to the starter and If you pull it the nothing happens when you try to start the vehicle. Great. This works well for long durations away from the truck. Can anything think of a way to accomplish the same from a hidden...
I’ve heard that once you go hydro it’s super easy to turn the steering wheel with light finger pressure. If that’s true is there possibly another way to install it to keep the baseline feel stiffer? Like a sports car? Maybe stiffer but consistent where it never gets any harder as the hydro...
I've heard in the past that some trackbars dont work with ARB diff covers and make contact, any idea if the Clayton kit works? Hoping to add these ARB diff covers during my regear but dont want to have problems.
Thanks!
Ended up going 38x12.50r17 on a Clayton 2.5” lift
The bigger you go with tire size the further out they need to stick to clear while turning. I’ve got 17x9” +1 offset wheels and it’s really pushing the clearances. I probably should have gone 17x9 -12

So far this is working great, no rubbing anywhere lock to lock. I've got a little under an inch at full lock before touching the front lower control arms.
I'm about half an inch...
Hello, I'm trying to wrap my head around backspacing an offset. If the tire sticks out further than the wheel why is backspacing always mentioned in lift kits rather than offset?
a 17x8.5 0 offset wheel will have 4.75" of backspacing
a 17x9 0 offset wheel will have 5" of backspacing...
Looking for wheels to go with 38x12.50r17 load c Nitto ridge grapplers
Stuck between all black KMC KM549 GRS wheeels and Doublr Black Method 312s. Both in 17x8.5.
Any thoughts? For a sting grey rubicon gladiator
I've got a Gladiator Rubicon on a 2.5" Clayton Overland Plus lift, not sure what tire I want to go with, currently, it's sitting on 35" load C BFG KO2s.

Funny story, after getting the lift all installed I pulled the wheel chocks and rolled the gladiator back a foot. Driveshaft to Pinion angle is perfect without touching anything. Torqued it all down
Lift installed. Didn’t help driveshaft angle as stated. Will use tomorrow to do an eyeball alignment.
As far as the rear goes you use the uppers to rotate the pinion and the lowers to center the axle in the fender right? Am I more concerned with the wheel in relation to the fender or the spring...
