Default 3.5 lift + 37's

Going to be getting the RK 3.5 mid arm flex lift. My question is what bumpstops to use. The kit is pretty complete but does not include bumpstops. I'm sure with 37's I'll have to do some trimming but not sure of what size bumpstops.Any thoughts.

That's exactly what I have:



As you can see, I trimmed my fenders which helps a LOT! I also had to do a bunch of trimming with the most being on the back of the rear wheel wells. The movement back of the rear axle by an inch makes a big difference.

Good luck with your build! I am VERY happy with mine!

Did you add bumpstop extension? Rig looks good by the way

Yes...I had a TF 2.5" lift and kept the extensions front and rear. I still get a little bit o rubbin, but nothing major. My Toyos are around 36" installed which is taller than most 37s though so that makes a difference.

Oh...and thanks...I am very happy with the outcome of my efforts...
