Bump stops needed for 37's
I have a pro comp 4" lift and 35's right now and I am running about 3" bump stops in the rear and just stock bumpstops in the front and I have no rubbing even at full flex....
That being said it is very close and I am 100% sure 37's will rub in the top of my fenders... I am not too keen on cutting the fenders as I need them to protect my body for the months that the roads are graveled when they are icey.
What bumpstops are people running with a 4" lift to clear the 37's under articulation?
Thanks
PS I know there is a show your 37s thread but feel free to pust up a pic or two

i think your bumpstop lenght should equal the lift height, i.e. 4" lift = 4" bumpstops. right now you are running with stock bumpstops up front? you could damage your coils by overcompressing them, thats what the bumpstop extensions are for

I am going to look into the 1.25" body lift to if I am having lots of rubbing problems.

yeah and I have flexed it right out to the max with no rubbing just home made bumpstops in the back.
it looks like it is rubbing but you can slip a credit card in there... so it is real close since this pic I have added a 1" spacer in the front so there is more room because I was having mud build up on the tire knowck the fender right off the clips

bump stops
I would also look closely at your shock lengths. if you are using long travel shocks, you will need extended bump stops even with 33"s just to prevent them from bottoming out.
