I'm wanting to lift my 23 Willy's S diesel soon. I'm leaning towards the Clayton Offroad 3.5" Ride Right lift with Bilstein 5100s and an upgraded front driveshaft. Eventually I want to have it on 37s. Does anyone here have this lift and have any feedback for me?

I have 2.5 ride right with 37s. I added a 1/2 spacer to the front to try and take out the rake the Clayton lift leaves. I think 3.5 may be too much for 37s in my opinion also if you do the 2.5 you can save your money on not needing a drive shaft.

Thanks for thr info. The local shop is recommending a dirveshaft for a 2.5 or greater lift.

The need for a new front DriveShaft is not dictated by lift but by the extended length of your front shocks. If you dig around you can find the details on the length numbers on this site.
