Default Movin on up....37's

Spent the weekend wrenching with most of the central canada boys, got my 37's mounted, bushwacker flats put on, and rear LoD removed. 37" toyos are massive! i had no idea 37's would make sure a dramatic difference on the jeep, but its changed it completely. Bushwacker fenders are really nice, great kit aside from some annoying fitment issues then ended up on and look awesome, very sturdy. surprisingly the 4.10's with the 37's arn't that bad, but will be putting the 5.13's in within the next couple weeks. I don't have great pics of the new set up cause of the shitty weather, but here are a few teasers for those who haven't seen them yet. I will post better pics when we get a nice day sometime. Thanks to everyone for all your help wrenching this weekend!

New wheels, Rugged Ridge Alloys 17x9 with and without rock ring

One Big Tire (takes up the whole rear of a 2dr!!)

Bushwackers going on

whole lotta tire

Front's done

all finished next to 2summers jeep for scale (2" lift w/33's)


will get better pics of everything soon!

Looks good Dave, what size lift are you running? Looks like you might need to trim the pinch seam a little..


I also notice a BIG difference going from 35's to 37's. Wait until you take it offroad...


Jkfest was the first time I wheeled on 37's. It really made everything seem easier.

TF 2.5 coil w/ 1" coil spacers on top, and a 1" BL

trimmed almost 2" or so off both the pinch seam and rock rails, no rubbing now. I can't wait to wheel it!!

nice, very low COG..

You might still need a little longer bump stop. I would bet you do rub flexing out.
