My Glad Ass Rig: 37's and 6" Lift

[Minty JL]

We wanted bigger lifts because we didn't and don't give a fuck about people's opinions........that's why.

Mine is on a MC GC 4.5 kit but measurements say 6" after the springs settled. Yeah I ran 37s with no lift.......but again, who gives a fuck.

Pretty much. I’m at 6” rear, and 4” front with 37’s. Love it.

I wish someone made 6” hd springs so I could get rid of my spacer.

I’m running EVO HD 6.5 rear springs w/ 4.5 RK front.

This is Clayton 3.5 with 39’s……measurement smeasurement. Seems like we’ve all got different results. If it looks good and performs good then to each his own. OP your JT looks good, good on ya

They make 6.5 hd? That’s awesome.

I tow and haul camping gear, so I like a stronger spring. I like a huge rake so when I haul it’s level. I refuse to have a level truck that squats when it’s loaded. How do those springs hold up to load?

Haven't loaded it down heavy. But does great with a couple hundred pounds of gear.

I regularly tow. When I tow the cargo trailer I keep the bed empty, but the camping trailer is accompanied by a full bed of tools and gear. While my springs aren’t the most comfy, they hold the weight.

Have you considered the accuair kit? Air ride so it self levels depending on the load. 4” normal ride height and can be bumped up to 6” under 25 MPH. I’m still batting it around in my head because I’m like you… I don’t want to drag ass when loaded up.

HD rears. Cap, tent and Decked all in play with its stance as it is pictured. Rides nice as well

So about 450-500 lbs before gear with those 3. I have the RSI and a RTT, no decked though.

Leaning toward 500-550 static…i have the smartcap internal bin as well for the driverside. Redarc set up with 300ah lithium in bed too. Fridge and that kinda crap is in the rear on top of goose gear set up. Truck is literally heavy as shit but sits square, never sagging and corners well. Clayton is like an hour away from me and i talked with them a bit when doing this. Originally had the 3.5 standard but as it got heavier I switched over to HD springs when I put in the Fusion 60’s last fall.

Not my thing. But it’s cool. I have the SDI EcliK system, and would never remove it.

I have the ACCUAIR system on mine. Solid components and excellent customer support. It is auto load sensing and all 4 corners can be adjusted to level at campsites. I selected the "piggyback" shocks for even more adjustability. I won't have to worry about spring sag over time or having too firm of springs when unloaded and saggy when really loaded.

for a brief moment i thought "air shocks" when i read your post. that takes me back to high school in the 70's when i had the back of my Camaro jacked up! aaah youthful engineering.
