Clayton Off Road

About Clayton Off Road

Clayton Walters started Clayton Off Road in 2001 because he loved Jeeping and wanted suspension that held up better than what he could buy. The company builds its Jeep suspension parts in the USA and ships from Hamden, Connecticut.

Clayton is best known for long arm lift kits and adjustable arms built around forged Johnny Joints. The design brief is two jobs at once: ride decently on the street and survive competitive rock crawling.

What we carry from Clayton Off Road

Our Clayton lineup covers complete lift kits, including the 2.5" Ride Right and 3.5" Premium kits for the 392 JL, plus control arms, adjustable track bars, sway bar end links, and long arm frame brackets and housings.

There are also forged Johnny Joints and connecting rods, 4-link axle trusses, skid plates with bolt kits, and the bushing tools and jam nut wrenches you need to service it all. Fitment spans the Jeep Wrangler TJ/LJ, JK and JL and the Jeep Gladiator JT.

How to choose

Clayton parts are cut by generation, and sometimes by engine within a generation. Read the title closely before you add to cart.

• Confirm your exact Jeep: XJ, ZJ, WJ, TJ/LJ, JK, JL or JT.
• Some JL parts differ for 392 and 2.0L models.
• Johnny Joints come in different widths (1.6" vs. 2.0"), so match the joint to your arm or bracket.
• Plan on Clayton's bushing tools and crow's-foot jam nut wrenches if you service your own arms. Damage from loose jam nuts isn't covered under warranty.

Lead times & shipping

Clayton says in-stock items usually ship within 48 hours and always within 1–3 business days. Parts we stock at NVMOS ship in 24–48 hours. Some items ship direct from Clayton, so check the product page or call for the current timing. Treat any lead time as an estimate that can change.

Clayton Off Road warranty

Clayton control arms and track bars carry a limited lifetime warranty against bending or breaking from a manufacturing defect. Johnny Joint bushings, GIRRO joints, springs, brake lines, skids, brackets and hardware get 1 year against workmanship defects. Coverage is for the original buyer only, and racing, modification and poorly maintained jam nuts are excluded. Read the full Clayton Off Road warranty summary.
