If you really want long arms EVO makes a bolt on long arm but its 4". You could probably do a different spring set up like Rock Krawler if you really want to go up further. As stated above regear should be high on your list and I'm pretty sure you will need new drive shafts if you go up that high. Maybe not immediately but with that angle it puts a lot of stress. You should also beef up your front axle with C gussets. With those big tires you might damage something pretty quick.
Good luck with the build. It's your Jeep!!

If you plan on flat fenders later, I would save the money and but smaller wheels which will make your tires cheaper (even if you get 37's). A 4" lift with 37's and flat are plenty good. You will need the money for gears soon after you change the tires. You will also most likely need a front driveshaft if you do go wheeling. I think you should also weld on some gussets to you dana 30. The gear work should be done at the same time you do your tires and wheels. Most 4" lifts tell you that you need to change the front driveshaft or use an exhaust spacer.

So it is a two door.. I'll go back to what I first posted... 37" will be a monster street jeep and regear will almost be a must.
someone suggested 2" with flat flares and 35's... for the money and "look" thats the way to go. lemme get a pic up of my rubi with 35's on a 3" bds
also..kids,wife, dog... not trying to talk you out of it....but 37" is a but street machine...just looking over the long haul...

Heres a TF 2.5 coil with 35s. In the future, I'm panning on flat fenders. When I have passengers, I bring a folding 2-step stool. Look at the height of the seats using the curb as a scale. It's nice to sit up high, but climbing into a taller rig just for street use is overkill.
