How do the 37's fit with this kit? I've been kinda curious about that. Also, any of you 2 doors wish you woulda gone to 3.5 or is the 2.5 ample...with the new coils of coarse lol

Cut my fenders and 2" bumps in all corners. Rear wheel well pinch seam is flattened. Minor rubbing in front. Probably should run 3" in front. I'll try and find a twisted pic

We have had a lot of luck with 37's with 2.5" of lift. Attached is a vehicle with that combo:
Coil sag has largely been eliminated. Coil Rate transitions were modified to ensure proper ride height. Typically if we see an issue with squatting it can be explained with pinion. That angle is explained in the directions and often overlooked when installing. That angle directly effects coil bow/loss of effective rate. We recommend our rear pinion angle to placed at 2 degrees below the output on the transfer case. Not doing this will cause interference with components and potentially sag the rear suspension.

Looking at that makes me think I'd be better off getting the 3.5 or just the 4 door coils. The extra height was a big bonus with the rk for me.
