Clayton 3.5" Overland Plus with BFG KO2s, 35x12.5. I had to install limit straps because rear fox shocks were about 1.5" too long and springs would pop out at full droop.

Don't recall if I posted after installing lift and tires and wheels. Some pics to share.

You know you're right it was an 82 cj5, I know it was an even year in the eighties. It had an AMC20 rear end and Dana 30 front diff, a Dana 300Tcase and a T15 manual trans.. My memory ain't what it used to be, thank you for pointing that out.

Sorry for the late response! You've probably already had your Jeep done but I thought I would comment on M.I.T.. I've had good e periences with MIT. I had an 84 CJ5 that they worked on and now my Gladiator. I have no complaints, they are very competent and customer oriented. I would definitely...

Thanks all. I wasn't necessarily looking for a specific spot as much as a general idea of which trails may be promising. I'll check out the silver canyon trail. Thanks again.

Does anyone have any recommendations on where to 4wheel, camp and fish around Bishop, CA? I've been looking at Green Creek, Coyote Flats, and areas like that. Looking to spend 2 or 3 days exploring the area. Not looking for trails that are advanced, looking for a relaxing adventure. Any tips...

Sport S Max Tow with 3.5inch Clayton Overland Plus and 35x12.5x17 BFGs and Black Rhino Arsenal Wheels with -18mm offset. I had to add limiting straps in the rear as the spring would leave the spring perch at full droop.

Thank you all for your input. It looks like limiting straps are my go to. Cheers!

I'll try and do that tomorrow in between other duties I have going on More to come

I like the lift , hope I can get this issue addressed because I do plan on doing some wheeling in the desert.

No I didn't compare them Shop did install.

Part number matches with Clayton recommendation. 985-24-221.

I'll have to check, but I recall seeing any extenders when I was under earlier.

I ordered kit from Clayton per the website as well as the recommended shock part number. The 3.5inch kit supposedly closer to 4. the shocks are for a 3.5 to 4inch lift.

I'm not sure as I had the shop install. I would like to think they were aware as they specialize in jeeps for 40 yr.s plus.

Good Day All, I recently purchased a Clayton 3.5inch Overland Plus lift kit and have been experiencing problems with the right rear spring popping out of its perch on full droop. I had a reputable shop (MIT of El Cajon CA, they specialize in jeeps) install it and they found that the rear spring...
