Default People with 37" tires.

This is a question for the people who have 37" tires. How does your jeep sit with a 37" spare tire? I have a FabFour rear bumper/tire carrier, a teraflex rockguard front bumper. I still have my factory wheels on, so there is a 18" wheel for the spare. I have no whinch yet. My jeep sags just a tiny bit. Enough to get cars to flash me at night. I have not adjusted because I know my lift should be coming very soon. Will the difference of getting a whinch be enough or would I have to put spacers in the back?

Depends on the lift, the spring rate and how much, if any of the rake it is designed to eliminate. I have a Full Traction 4" Ulitmate lift now (prototype), a big PUREJEEP rear bumper and a 37" spare on a heavy Walker Evans wheel and I have a PUREJEEP stubby up front with a WARN PowerPlant up front and my ride sit very level if not a hair nose down.
