Default 37's

Just dropped my jeep off at the lift place getting a 6.5 BDS long arm installed with 37 Toyos and I know i am going to hear it from a lot of people 20 inch XD addicts Hoping to go 40's next year just out of the budget this year with lift. anyway anything else needed to really make this work I will be posting some pics today or tom. but I am thinking a stubby bumper and obvious rear tire carrier
any input is appreciated
thanks
Mike

I would look into axle re-inforcements if you wheel with it.

Evo Sleeve kit
Evo C Gussets
Evo Control arm skids
Chromoly Axle Shafts
Etc.....

What place is doing the lift? OK4wd? I know they are big on the BDS lifts, I'm not a fan of spending that kind of money or any kind of money on a lift with non adjustable control arms I would hope who ever is doing it would steer you to what else you need to really make it work. I would definitely do the evo c gussets, control arm skids and axle sleeves, they arent needed right away unless you are going to wheel it hard since you do have 44's front and rear.

Good Luck you're going to have to join us down in the Pine Barrons
