We have a 3" lift on our shop JK (4 door) with 37"s. Some trimming of plasic is involved but nothing big. Most of our trimming is due to having 5" (lift) links pushing the axles forward-back. We cut the rear bumper ends, then found it looked better without a bumper (after it got smashed) until our prototype comes in.
I don't know for sure but with a 4" lift I'd say you'd be pretty reasonable for 37"s .....I'd go for it, but trimming plastic doesn't hurt my feelings.

IM HERE....
haha yea you can fit it.. youll need to do some trimming to the rear wheel wheels and remove your airdam. and you should be ok. i changed my bumper after a deer stole it lol.
i have 4" super lift and 37 boggers
i have rubbed on hard wheeling days but nothing to bad, i dont have as much flex but i think the way it looks makes up for that
what axles do you have??
also you can make a stubby

You don't need new drive shafts on a 4 inch lift, depending on the amount of travel that you get out of it. You can always limit or increase travel, keeping the drive shafts in check.

You should be replacing shafts on a 4", I have an unlimited, my rear is fine, but the front is another story. I am rubbing on the front cross member (a little grove in the shaft), and the angle the boot is in is begging for a tear. I will be replacing mine soon.

I catch my front bumper on mine after my spring settled that is not flex out either just the movement of going backward at full lock will rub it either way only in the front it could also be that the front axle is move farward alittle with ajustable control arms the air dam gets tire lovin to I think I am going to put 2" spacers up front to level it out some then I would need a new shaft.
