I’m glad you posted this video. I am shopping for a lift kit for my JL overland build. Trying to find a lift that is more geared towards weight carrying capacity as opposed to max articulation is frustrating. I have never heard of Clayton Offroad and will certainly check them out. USA made is also important to me.
I have watched this video a few times and I am completely sold on getting the Clayton Overland + for my JK. Thank you for all of your great content and support to the overlanding community. If discount codes are still availbe I would love to get one, but buying the no mater what
I’m deff going with Clayton Off-road as soon as my JL comes in. I wouldn’t settle for anything less. You can’t compare with the quality of their heavy duty parts! Plus 🇺🇸 made!! Need I say more?!?! 😎
love your channel ... I'm thinking of adding a 3.5" lift to my Gladiator ... I've been looking at Clayton and I think your video just assured me that I'm looking at the right product.
I have owned several Jeep’s YJ, TJ, LJ, (2) JK’s and all have Clayton parts. In the process of building another 2014 JK 2 door. It will have Clayton. A discount code is greatly appreciated. Thanks for the great videos. I really enjoy
@@CoddiwompleOverland sorry for not getting back to you sooner. Work has me spinning in circles. I’m going to put the code to use on my ‘06LJ. Thanks again and sure am enjoying the videos. Btw, Susan ( wife) and I will be headed down to SW NC for some camping.
I had the 5 1/2" longarm kit installed on my 01 TJ back in 2006, and man was that incredible. Now, we have a 2021 jlu rubicon, and i am leaning towards this lift:^) can't wait!!
@@thomasharman4660 i believe it may have been a 4.5", with an inch body lift for exhaust fitment, but either way, it was rugged. Only square steel arms that i know of, and they used johnnie joints at the time. Not sure how theyre building them these days.
Thanks for the review in these. I’ve been looking for new springs and control arms for my 2dr Jk. While if don’t have my overlanding gear in my Jeep, I do pull a trailer behind me every trail I go in.
Thank you for posting this! It looks very capable, from what I’ve seen in your other videos. I don’t currently own a Wrangler, but will be getting one next summer. I’m doing my research now about what lift to install. I hunt, camp, and love the idea of exploring all the trails I can get onto. This video gives me something to think about because I’ve been thinking about going with a 2.5” lift and running 35” tires. I don’t expect to go with a roof tent, since I’ll be alone and my buddies have their 4Runners and Tacomas, so a ground tent or sleeping inside the Jeep would work for me. From your experience, would you recommend I go with what I was planning or to go with 3.5” lift and 37” tires? I’m trying to take everything into consideration, including center of gravity, fuel consumption, etc. Thanks again for posting this video. Very informative and well-done.
2.5 inches and 35s make a very capable rig. And you can get by without having to do a lot of other upgrades like gears, steering and brakes. I am running 5:13 gears, have upgraded the steering and brakes are coming shortly. 37's do make a big difference over 34 or 35 inche tires. The question to you is how capable do you want to be and what are you willing to change to get there. We really like being able to go where ever we want with in reason and be confident enough to be able to get back out. Not sure that I answered your question. I would recommend watching the difference between the red Jeep which is on 34's and the orange one In the Mountain Springs video. I hope this helps and if you decide 2.5 or 3.5, Clayton has a kit for you.
Your Jeep is an absolute beast...have you ever used Fox 2.0 shocks? From what I've read the valving is a bit firmer. Consider the rooftop tent and the leverage it's generating, they may make a difference... not that your Jeep exhibits any bad traits.
I run Clayton's long arm kit. It rocks! Looking at your front end in the video, for your next upgrade, I highly advise a front track bar bracket for your track bar and a drag link flip kit - especially with a 3.5" lift and 37's. It'll really help your drag link and track bar angles which look a little steep....The Jeep will steer and handle way better and you'll be happy:) Love you guys!
Can you still get a discount 2 years later ? Did you ever have 2nd thoughts about the 3.5 VS 4.5 Overland + lift kit set up ? I have 2012 JKU wanting to run 37'' factory flares with a mild trim of the plastic.
@@CoddiwompleOverland thanks. Great looking Jeep. Kinda the same route I wanna go with my JKU. great videos I enjoy watching. I’m in Tennessee and you’ve given me some great ideas for some spring trips.
Great review, what gears are you running with this lift and the 37s? I have 4:10 now was wondering if you re-geared. Definitely considering the Clayton Overland suspension.
This is a great video and exactly what we were looking for. We have the JL deisel. RTT awning solar battery etc. this looks like the right kit. Any additional advice for the deisel?
Thanks so much. My wife and I are binge watching your channel. We just got into overlanding this year. We are similar to you all. Late 50s time for something for us together. The planning and discussing is wonderful. Thank you.
Thanks for this video. I'm going to go with the clayton lift. 3.5 in overland+ with 35s until I can get the rest upgraded for 37s. Is your code still good? Thanks again. Your recommendations mean alot. You seem very honest. Also just ordered the headlights you reviewed in another video.
How do you like the Cooper STT tires you went with? I have a JLU Rubicon with a 3.5 lift that is on 37 Toyos. It's getting close to time for new tires and I have been looking really hard at the Coopers.
I can't say enough great things about the STT's. We have had them in/on payment, sand, mud, rocks, snow and ice and they work awesome. We have about 5k miles on them and seem to be holding up really well too. They are surprisingly quiet for a MT
@@CoddiwompleOverland That's great to hear because I really like them. I have read a bunch of reviews about them and 99% are positive. But it's hard to find someone like you guys who I know have actually put them through their paces! Love the channel. It's nice to see some overlanding in the Southeast for a change!
I did not catch the kind of tires you are running. Please repost kind & size as of now i am running 35 x 12.5 x 17 Toyo MTs. I will be needing some tires soon.

Can you still get a discount 2 years later ? Did you ever have 2nd thoughts about the 3.5 VS 4.5 Overland + lift kit set up ? I have 2012 JKU wanting to run 37'' factory flares with a mild trim of the plastic.
I don't think the discount is still available. You can try giving then a call. Never had second thoughts.
Are you still running the factory Dana 30 in the front? Was wondering how it was holding up if you are.......

Hey wondering how the Clayton lift has held up over the years, opinion still the same?
We still have the same opinion and have had no issues. We also put a Clayton lift on our Gladiator.
What is the name of the flat fenders you are using . Thanks
They are EAG from Amazon.

Your welcome.
I have a JLU Rubicon. the site indicates i would need a new drive shaft for the 3.5 in....did you change your drive shaft?
From what I bread it recommended a "CVstyle driveshaft". I did not change mine, but I had already installed the teraflex rzeppa joint.
Awesome kit but I will guarantee a soft ride from the cheaper bilstein shocks within two years
Forgot to add how has it held up?
This setup lasted us for almost 100,000 miles and was still going strong when we sold it. As far as we know, it is still doing great.
