Yes so I had to run the non reservoir in the front because of the diesel. However they JUST released a smaller external bypass for the diesel and you can now run the 3.3’s! You just have the buy the diesel specific versions
That's basically what I'm doing for a lift too. a friend said the RK springs would be better and that I would like the Teraflex Alpine arms and joints better. I'm doing fox factory race 3.0's and only doing 35" tires though.
That sounds great. Congrats, would love to see some pictures. Do you happen to have your up-travel measurement...the measurement between bottom of top bump stop to top of bottom bump stop at ride hieght?
Is this what you're looking for? I did 2 pucks up front and I have the MC duraspring upper stops. I'd say between 2-3". I'll try to get an actual measurement. MC said I could run 2 but might be able to get away with one once I can fully flex it and see if any rub. I have a lot of room between tires and inner liners
Yup, exactly what I was looking for. Between two and three inches is where I am as well with the Clayton 2.5 Overland diesel kit. However, looks like you have the MC upper bump stop as well, which are a bit more giving and a bit longer than OEM. I am at 2.75 with the OEM bump and 3 inches of lower bump stop. That works fine for slow rock crawling or pavement driving, but for higher speed stuff: whoops, rough forest or desert roads it will likely bottom regularly. Thank you, good to know it is not just the Clayton, looks like spacing is standard. I am taking out fender liners and putting in MC inner fenders, then am going to re-ramp and see if I can pull 2 inches of bump stop. If I can I will have 4.75" inches of up-travel and will call it good. If not going to add a bit of spacer. Again thanks a lot, exactly what I was looking for.Is this what you're looking for?

I almost went Clayton because of their diesel specific lift and being in my home state of CT. I'm. happy with the MC so far. MC told me their bumps will compress a LOT so effective uptravel should be more than what is actually there. I've run mine at speed on backwoods roads in realty shitty shape and so far pretty good. The Rocksport shocks are not meant for that kind terrain at speed, but the Jeep felt solid and not rough.
Yes it does!
are these the 2.5" evo diesel springs? Can you post some side shots if possible? really interested to see the ride height gap. Thanks!Almost forgot some pics. BTW, I like the way it rides and the Fox shocks should top it off! Got about $22k into it! Love the shit out of it and it is an off-road beast!
You have to take into consideration also the high cut fenders though if you wanna judge the gap…
