Ride quality and offroad ability-- the combination of both. Have had many jeeps and lifts. Most important is to get the right one for what you do and how you drive. Clayton is stronger and stouter than some other lifts-- has upgraded upper and lower control arms. Upgraded shocks, Fox and when set up right with a couple other things (aev geometry correction brackets, adj steering stabilizer) and the right wheels and tires for you... this thing takes the hits, but is butter on the road.Glad to see your enthusiasm aevgladiatorrubi LOL, I just don't know why though. Could you tell me why you chose Clayton over the others?
I will give them a look, thanks!Ride quality and offroad ability-- the combination of both. Have had many jeeps and lifts. Most important is to get the right one for what you do and how you drive.

They’re set up that way in my opinion to lower the center of gravity. Typically, they will lower the rear and also have an ungodly amount of downward travel.I agree with your "rant", haha! When I installed my Teraflex spacers, it was to correct what I believe to be a "mis-calculation" from Mopar. The Mopar 2" lift left my truck with almost 2.75" of rake! Looked dumb to me. I want a little rake, but not that much. So, I installed the spacers to get it closer to what I wanted. Around 1.5" rake.
I will say this about trucks with lower rear ends,,,, ALL competition off-road trucks are set up that way. Not sure why.
