Thanks. I haven't checked this thread for a while. I will post some close-ups of the pinch seems. Planman helped answer a lot of questions I had regarding this build. His link is a good starting point for details on how to do 37's with smaller lifts.

Wanted a low COG Jeep. I use this for everything; offroad as well as my daily driver. I drive at least 100 miles per day and so far have 30K on it. I started with a 2.5" Teraflex coil lift with shock extensions. I added Bushwacker flares and did major pinch seem mods with a BFH. LOD rear bumper/tire carrier was next. Then I added the 17" KMD Addicts with 37" Pitbulls. This past weekend I just put on the LOD Shorty Stinger front bumper (still waiting for the skid plate and some hardware for my fog lights and winch plate to be secured) and the LOD side rails. The pitbulls are aggressive looking, but are a little quieter than my stock Rubi tires were. I can actually here the radio at a lower level than before. It hums but it's not bad.
Wicked. Love the stance.

Yeah, you're proving this is possible for me (not that Planman hasn't already). I wanted 35's but really as long as JKUs are it doesn't make that much sense. I didn't see it mentioned but are you using any of the spacer pucks with the 2.5" lift? My 2.5" really wasn't all that much after adding the bumpers, winch, and sliders.
