[QUOTE=karnuvore;372362]Nice! Drove fine the whole way home eh? Power is good?
Power w/ the 5.13 seemed fine but the shift points could be played with.
The drive home was a little tedious due to ruts from tractor trailers and poor roadways. On 37's @ 70mph you just have to pay constant attention to the conditions around you. I wouldnt want to do it again anytime soon but its something ill remember forever.
blockrockin, they are 15" rims but w/ the spacers there is adequate clearance from the brakes.

oh, by the way, those wheels clear the brakes without the spacers. i added the spacers after i put the 37's on cause i wanted to increase the width to make up for the increase in altitude.

marionnc, that is a gorgeous rig. It looks like all the right things were built about it all the way down to the axles. Good work!
Enjoy guiness, congratulations!
I understand what a stock JK can do but its almost hard to fathom the capability of one lifted 5" on 37" swampers!
