Sweet setup.
Ya you shouldn't have any rubbing issues with the 4.5 and 35s. The 4.5 kit will fit 37s, and 3.5 will fit 35s.
Yes the rear will be a little higher. The Jeep has a normal rake. We take a little bit of it out, but most remains. Once you add a bumper, tire carrier, and some cargo it will sit perfect. We believe it looks better with higher in the back, and then level with some weight, rather then sitting level, and then once you add bumper/tire carrier and cargo then the rear sits low. Thats our opinion and most of our customers agree. But it is a personal preference. Yes you can always add spacers to get exactly what your looking for.
So you like the 4.10s with 35s hu. I have 5.13s and 37s in mine, and I think its not enough. I do like to cruise around 80mph, and every little hill slows me down. Maybe I just need a sticker on my dash that says "Its a Jeep, not a sports car"
Either way, thanks for choosing our lift, and goodluck with yoru new Jeep.

Thanks for posting! I understand your logic with keeping the rake a bit, and I agree. I was able to get the ride dialed in better by dropping the air pressure in the tires, 30f and 28r. I'm still getting a bit of vibration, but I'm not sure if its the tires or drive lines. In a few weeks I'll take it back to Northridge to have a final re-checked done and try to find the source. I'll be putting it through its paces this weekend and will get some pics up soon. Well done Clayton!
Yeah, the 35 with 4.10's is not too bad at all. I try to follow the speed limits anyway, I've gotten hit with two speeding tickets about a year ago and need to be a good boy for a while
