Do you have something weighing down the rear in the bed?Installed 3.5" ride right with fox shocks. Did anybody have any pinion angle issues?

Do you have a waiting list or beta signup for these diesel coils? Just received my 22 eco and interested in your 2.5 ride right+ system. I'm about 2 hours from you guys.

Hey @Clayton Off Road , what is your opinion on this pinion angle for the rear and the rear sway bar angle? I heard for pinion you want it a little under so that’s what I was going for. What do you recommend?

@Clayton Off Road are your kits going to offer the new curved rear track bar or is that going to be an upgrade over the current bar? Also when will the website start listing the kits with the diesel springs. Thanks

That looks great. It's just about finding the right balance between the pinion angle and rear coil, but it looks as if you have it set nicely.Hey @Clayton Off Road , what is your opinion on this pinion angle for the rear and the rear sway bar angle?

I think the truck is just sitting at a bit of a decline! The kits leave about an inch or so of rake

Thanks! I believe this is what I have settled on. I will be watching. I am just waiting for the dealer to take my deposit for order so maybe they will be available by the time I take possession.

Are you missing the lower spring seats?Hey @Clayton Off Road , what is your opinion on this pinion angle for the rear and the rear sway bar angle? I heard for pinion you want it a little under so that’s what I was going for. What do you recommend?
My kit (not claytons) had lower spring perches for the rear.

What have you done or engineered in to eliminate the dreaded front end bottom out issue with the JTRD’s? Have you created some type of modification / alteration to the embarrassing nubbin of a bump stop? …just spring & shock valving adjustment? …hydro stop?

Has anyone added geo correction brackets with the 3.5" clayton lift? Mine with fox 2.0's is pretty harsh on broken pavement, and I'm getting some pretty healthy bump steer on big impacts. My thought process was lowering the frame side mounting points gets the arms closer to level, which should give me less front/back axle movement as the suspension cycles. This might also allow the shocks a chance to absorb some of the impact instead of transferring it into the frame..
