Finally got some decent pics of SilverTruck with the @Clayton Off Road 3.5” overland plus lift bolted up. Tell us what you think, hit me with questions. Taken with iphone X.

I guess. For the cost of this kit one could have a mild lift from a variety of makers with better shocks and choice of adjustable lcas.

I guess. Its not a replacement for adjustable control arms and I’d rather trust strength of frame and axle than stamped brackets.

Surprised AEV would go with control arm relocation brackets.

Just wait and get a TRX. No compromise. (Kidding) i have had four ram 1500’s including 2 limiteds. If you even think you need more room, the ram is the choice. Best interior in the industry or this side of an s550 for that matter. if you want the adventure of a jeep, go for it. This is my...

If its slower than you want, throw in some gears. If not, enjoy your ride.

All you guys are right with physics. But the JT stops well for size, vehicle mass and rotating mass even with 37s. plus if i needed bigger brakes i’d have to get rid of my 17’s and jeeps need fat tires

There’s not a braking deficiency on the gladiator. I have 37’s and heavy ones at that. The trans does a great job of engine braking by downshifting in hard stops. I am sure if i repeatedly jammed the breaks they’d fade fast but there is nothing dangerous about the factory braking power with...

Hey everyone was new once. jeep identifies their models/body styles with alphabetic codes called model designation codes. Gladiator’s code is JT. Here’s a wiki. Welcome to the habit. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Jeep_vehicles

Not sure the answer is gmc but consider this a PSA to protect our fellow neighbors from bench stats suggesting a ridgeline is on top. he’s right you know.

Is that you coach Thorsen? Not sure you know me by name but until recently we were neighbors! We sold our house and are moving out to a property off 119. We are in Tuscaloosa now waiting on closing but will be back in the area in Nov and would be happy to connect. Your gladiator is sharp! as...

stabilizer relo is all about getting the stabilizer up and out of the way. From the factory the stabilizer is the lowest thing on the front axle/steering assembly. The win loss rate on stabilizers vs rocks is not good for the stabilizer.

Saw that. i think that guy clearanced the track bar on the side with the binding issue. I would be careful doing that but visually he didnt take a lot of material off. Tons of jeepers use synergy. I have their sector shaft brace and its a quality piece. Also have their stabilizer relo kit and...

yep. Really its ideal to find a shop that will install your track bar and do the alignment all at once. and the steer smarts yeti is too much for a 2 inch lift. Think you made the right choice, in my opinion

The thing is, if you change your track bar, which you absolutely should, then you should also get your rig’s front end aligned as it will definitely be out after your adjustment. Just something to keep in mind

Found this one. John Currie makes good stuff. Seems like a no brainer. Rock Jock Carrier Bearing Spacer

Thanks for the quick reply. I’m not having any issues but seems like cheap insurance and way more economical than a full custom driveshaft.

Is anyone running a carrier bearing spacer to correct rear pinion and driveline angles on a taller lift? Dana spicer and a couple other makers have them out...typically made from billet aluminum.

Hey man your jeep is looking great. Pro move there with the powder coating on the wheels. I wish my wheels were actual beadlocks. Keep it up
