Are you looking to buy johns 35s?

Here's a 3.5" lift with 35's.

The guy did a hack job. If you trim yours right it will look much better.

KTMracer on jeepforum is running 37's on about a 4" lift just fine. Main thing is just to bumpstop and trim.

But my $.02: Ditch your stock leafs and block and get decent leafs back there .

Yea, with trimming and bump stops they'll fit....

Now for my question to you. Are you trying to convince two women of this? Or did you get married over the afternoon?

I believe uptravel is just as important. It's what keeps your jeep level when climbing over objects. If there's little to none uptravel, than the body tilts as the axle climbs over the rock. Tilting bodies result is rollovers or near-rollovers....or spilled coffees.

Well i got the 35's on as you will see in the pictures my rear end is sagging a bit.i have 3 inch blocks with the stock leafs and they are definitly sagging.but they fit and do not rub.havent had a chance to flex it out but i am sure i am going to have some rubbing but that just gives me an excuse to go higher.enjoy the pics
