I wish it did. Lol. I already have front adj lowers. Def going to look into this option of running 37's.

It proves you have a high A.I.Q! Aka anal intelligence quotient. Yup, a smart a**! With that said, I did guffaw.

OK, so back to topic. It sounds like you need either a 2.5 inch lift with an additional 1 or more inch of body lift OR 3.5 or larger lift. On top of that reinforcing the front Dana 30 will be needed if you wheel.
Do I have it right? What pieces are missing?

I could add spacers to my teraflex 2.5 coil lift, or piece together springs and shocks for 3.5 to 4" loft.

Or the 2.5 lift and flat/trimmed fenders.
