I've searched the forums and haven't seen anything specifically regarding the JTR Diesel and leveling lift/spacer kits...

I can't stand the rake, and would like to put 37" Nitto Trail Grappler's on. Not sure I want to put a Mopar lift on and have to do a bunch more stuff anyways- and waiting to see how all the beta tester's like their Clayton/Metal Cloak Diesel specific lifts before I spend a few grand on one.

Soooo.... what's the best leveling kit/spacer lift out there??? Front/back, Front only??? 1.5" 2" 2.5"???

Thanks in advance.

I have 37x13.5 Toyo R/Ts. I put on the Teraflex 1.5" front leveling kit. It's level to a little nose-high now. I have Daystar 3/4" rear spacers I'm going to install, hopefully tomorrow. No issues with the Teraflex, but their "torque specs" are ridiculous. They give a torque spec plus another amount of turn on the fastener. There is no way to hit that spec and turn it more than 1/4 turn more.

Happy with the Teraflex 1.5" aside from wanting the Daystar 3/4"??? Anything else needed?

Does look good but I can see the nose up that you mention.

No, it rides/drives great. I had zero rub with the 37s (18x9, 0 offset wheels) before the leveling kit.

Are you bottoming out with this setup? How’s the lift been?

I'd get some bottoming out on big ruts in the sand on the beach. I've since upgraded to Rusty's 4" Advanced kit.
