Default low lift and 37 pics?

hey guys I'm looking for some pics of a 2 door with 37 and 4" or less lift. I'm going to be lifting the jeep soon and am thinking of using 3.5" RE kit with 37 Toyo mt's. I know that the jeep would rub off-road but this jeep is a pavement pounder, I have my Tj for wheeling. Any help would be great.. Ill be putting 5.13 gears in too.

Oh one other thing will I need to get new drive shafts with a 3.5" lift.

thanks all

Nate

Default 4 inch lift

I am having my jeep modded right now and and I used the Rough Country 4 in ch lift. I did not need a new driveshaft. It is running 35'n with the Toyo MT. Did someone tell you you needed a new drive shaft? I dont have pics yet I am in Iraq and wife is trying to get some for me. as soon as I get them I will send you a pick.

Everything I've heard is you'll need them over 3". It's not one of those "if it happens", it's a "when it happens". At least a rear would be needed. If you only drive streets and have a manual.........I wonder how long you'd last......

You will need to get a rear shaft soon. People with more than a 3inch lift (on the 2 door) report anywhere from 8,000 to 15,000 miles before it fails
