To fit 37's you will most likely require 3.5-4" of lift. At that height you will need to change your front drive shaft as well. Track bar relocations with adjustable track bars. I would suggest a lift kit with adjustable control arms to correct your caster and avoid vibrations. Do a search on lift kits, there is a lot of info and many to choose from... EVO, Currie, RK, MC, Teraflex just to name a few. Regarding gearing for the 3.6, I think most would recommend 4.88:1 however I choose 4.56:1 and am quite happy with the results. This is assuming you have an auto transmission. All depends on what geographic region you live in, many considerations...It's not a clear black and white answer. Good luck and use that search feature it yields great info.

Im on a rc 4 inch lift. Swapping out the nitros for the 5160s this week and 511s. Love the height and very little sag just not loving the ride so hoping the billsteins will smooth things out. Hope this helps.

I was wondering do you lifts have a smooth ride cause the 2013 rides very nice compare to my 2008 even though it was a two door and I did no mods on that one it drove very rough compare to my 2013 four door
