37's on 4"

[BayouGold]

This guy has a 4" OME lift, 1.25" JKS BL/MML & 37" mt/r's. The mt/r's are a little smaller than claimed. I may do this vice the km2 35's.

I like your style, Dingo!

We've been running MT/R's on JD's Jeep forever and they are great in all kinds of terrain. I am really digging a set of Pitbull Rockers though...And they're cheaper than the MT/R's...

I know it is just a pic, but that looks like a Mall Crawler to me.  Rough guess is he only has 2" or clearance before he starts rubbing his flairs.  One good wheel stuff and say good bye to the flair, and possible some body damage.  Just look how Axle's tires stuff into his wheel wells and you can just imagine how much damage can be done without enough clearance.  Another option is to have good bump stops, but that couter acts the purpose of a flexy suspension.  Just my 2 cents.

Depends,  I know Zuk don't do well with a lot of up travel, but can be built to droop like no tomorrow. Granted, they are fairly flat leaves on a Zuk, and that should have coils, but if it's built to droop you don't need a lot of up-travel.

[Axle]

With bump stops and a good down travel shock, he could keep most, if not all of his flex.  You are right, however, he will lose some flex, but I think it can be done without major trimming involved.  He may lose flex, but his center of gravity will be a lot lower than mine, which could allow him to do climbs that I'm too tall for.

i emailed teraflex & rubicon express & got the lengths of their 5" & 4.5" shocks respectively. the rear shocks were the same height & the tera 5" were 21" compared to 20.1/4" for the re. essentially the same. the rears both measured 16 1/2". the tera 4" springs i have on now are 20 1/4 (front) & 15.38" in the rear. so not too much lift gained with either spring, at least not to justify $400+ for new ones.

here's the link to that guys pics webpage. if you scroll towards the bottom it looks like the 37's he's wheeling with. one pic looked sorta like he had a puc in the front, but it's hard to tell & he didn't mention any pucs on his intsall pages. look at these pics & let me know what you think. i appreciate the input.

The rockers in 35 & up are 35 x 14.50" from what i've seen. the 33's are 13.50's.

Ok, I see it now.  He's running that 4" lift with what looks like 2" pucks and at least a 1" body lift.  With 7" of lift, that is what mine would look like without the 8.8 rear and 1" body lift.  The 8.8 gives me an extra 5/8's" clearance in the rear.  Even with the body lift, those tires stuff pretty hard in the front on mine.  Your best bet imo is to go with the high clearance kit from either gen right or aev so you can keep the 4" lift and small body lift.

Ditto.

i'd go with a small BL. in addition as well.

i think axle is talking about the AEV HighLine fender kit. its a nice kit that looks factory, and will allow upto 36" or 37" tires with in the front with only a 4 1in kit. But the stinger is the price. Its like $1800. I say screw that! Buy a welder, some air tools, some tubing and sheet metal, and start experimenting. You'd mostlikely come out spending less money than you would getting the kit, and, you can make them exactly how you want them. As soon as i get the materials and space to do so, i'm going to be doing all that and maybe more.  Alittle trial by Mig fire, and eventually I'll have a one off piece completley custom that no one else has.  Lets just hope that it can be mirrored close enough to look right on the other side.

[HOT-ROD]

lol,

lets hope.

Looks like it may be a 2" OME lift coils and a 2" BB with a BL...

Can be done but as stated before... Needs bump stops!!!
