I will start by saying that I know 37s are no small undertaking.
I am going to have the opportunity to do some work on the jeep and perform a full suspension upgrade. I want to get to 37 eventually and am interested if the step to 35s along the way would be a needed one (funds for parts specifically). I am willing to make the stop at 35s in the interest of keeping things done the right way.
I'll start with what I have now. A 2012 jku with an LSD, 3.21 gears, 44 in the back and a 30 up front. I am running 33s on it now with 16in wheels and cut flairs. That is it...I know that even in going to 35s it is in my best interest to re-gear as I am already downshifting. This is the main reason I ask myself "just do a PR 44 up front at the time of re-gear and ...37s?!"
I am not looking at going into the coil over systems yet, though that is an option further down the line. I do realize that geometry will change at the 37 height and a front 44 might be in my best interest.
I am open to thoughts and proposed shopping lists for either set up (35s or 37s)
PS just transfered to middle Tennessee so any suggestions on places to wheel would be greatly appreciated too
