Default AEV Pintlers + 37's = problem?

The plan:

AEV Beadlock Pintlers + 37" KM2's. Lift will be teraflex 4" long arm. Am I going to have lots of rubbing, a little rubbing, or no rubbing?

Thanks.

My guess little or no rubbing. The TeraFlex 4" lift will probably actually Yield closer to 5" to 5.25" of lift.

I know that mmcan ran that wheel combo and had rubbing on the arms of his Full Traction long arm kit, so you may want to have some wheel spacers handy just in case.

You will have to adjust your steering stops just a bit. And WOL have a write up somewhere in the forum.

Thanks for the info guys.

Putnam, I know they used to has several different backspacing options on their website but last I checked I only saw the one. Perhaps I should contact them
