Default ome lift w/ 37's

just wondering if it is possible. I plan on also gettin some tube fenders and short front/rear bumper to allieviate any potential rubbing. Also if anyone has any pics that would be great.

Hey Eddie, do you have any details on how they pulled this off? Are they using bump stop extensions? Are they able to use factory fenders and trim, or does this require tube fenders? I searched, a bit, for a thread on this and couldn't find it.

Thanks!

there used to be a company that made high clearnace tube fenders and they ran a 2-door with 37's and just a complete 2" budget boost (bumpstop extensions were installed). surprisingly, it worked quite well but i think that the OME with it's taller coils would work a lot better.

With as heavy a JK as you have, I'll be interested to see if you think your Jeep's a slug with 37" tires. I think you're going to find 4.10s aren't anywhere deep enough for optimal performance.
