Default What are Min Mods for 37's

Hey you guys with 37 in tires, can you get into the dirt and mud with only 3 in lift and no other suspension mods? I want to get 37s but I think I need a Rubi first, and then I will plan to go from there. Any suggestions? Thanks JDJ:toung: I am a little unsure of the change to drive lines and slip yoke etc.

I will agree with going to the 6" but you on ly need 4" by the time you throw in flex arms spend the extra 500 to get the other 2"

And you have what experience with this?
I have a 4" Superlift with 37" Iroks (True 37's), and the only time I have rubbed was when I tore up some bump stops.

Anyway a lower center of gravity is better
