I'm interested and excited that it's in consideration! It's not financially feasible right now (got hit with a $1500 pest control bill in our apartment) but I'll be keeping my eyes open and will DM if I get a financial windfall!
Make sure the arms are bending inwards and down, if you have any questions give us a call and we can have you send us some pictures to see what's going on!
No, but, I also thought I might have an issue there when everything was loose... The Clayton arms are beefy ! After I made sure I had the right arm on the right side and I cinch up all the control arms and track bar, there was plenty of clearance.
It's deceiving when it's up on a two-post lift but those arms fit with plenty of clearance on both sides!
Ahh... no. Didn't think that was a big deal. It's a little cockeyed. That could cause the traction light to flash?
I showed my daughter and she said the tires looked little. She told me if I went with the 3.5” I either needed new tires or needed to wait until my current 35s wear out.Thought some of you guys might find this interesting. I wish I had some more photos, but I had a customer send us over some photos of his JT Rubicon with our 3.5" kit on 35's. We get a lot of questions on how combinations like this might look, especially for a Rubicon on a 2.5" lift with 35's, so this is a little bit out of the ordinary for sure but let me know what you guys think! The bed weight probably helps a little bit as well.

Yes if your steering wheel is not centered correctly it can cause this to happen. First get your jeep lined up moving in a straight line and approach your work area. Once your tires are lined up and straight and you notice the wheel is not centered, it needs to be corrected. If you place a piece of painters tape around the center point of your steering wheel this will help you see the center point from the front of the vehicle while making the adjustments. You will need to loosen the collar on your drag link and adjust it by turning it in the direction that will make your steering wheel come back to center. Once finished tighten everything back to spec and take for a test drive around the block and see if you need to make minor adjustments to get it perfect. It may take several tries.
Congrats on doing your own install, that's always a great feeling! If you'd like, feel free to PM or email us some photos of the underneath and we can check everything out for you the best we can. The sway bar end links actually have a spot for an allen key to help hold them in place while you tighten, so hopefully that helps you out some! Again feel free to send over any pictures or questions to our email so we can help make sure everything works properly!Finally got my truck this past Thursday (ordered in December). Put on the lift yesterday (Sunday). It was a struggle. Took me and buddy over 11 hours. You guys make it look easy. Then again, I don't even change my own oil. Lift looks good but I'm having some problems maybe you guys can help diagnose.
There's also a rattle at the front passenger corner. But I think that's the sway bar end link. I had a hard time tightening that sucker.
I get a random traction light sometimes. Can a bad pinion angle cause traction problems? I think my rear is a little bit off. Also, what should I be looking out for to know if there's other problems with my lift? Keep in mind I'm pretty new to wrenching and this is my first Jeep. Thanks.
It's definitely not the norm! But honestly isn't even too bad looking!
