Uh oh. I was just about to purchase the same lift and run 37's. Can you post more pics of your rig? Are you looking to go to the 5.5 for more articulation or is it just enough lift for 37's?

Looks great. Thanks. I'll prob stick with the lift and do 1" spacers. When you did the 3.25 lift, did it remove the rake? Thanks for the help!

Thanks. I'm running a rubicon express 2.5" right now and it still has the rake, but it is also pucks. I'm going to run the 3.25 lift and will add spacers if I see fit when I jump to 37's. Thanks for all the help!
