    No, you are not getting 37s into the 1.5" lift. There is just not enough room for that size tire to articulate. Could you drive on the road like that? Sure...

    You could also put 22s on your jeep. Same issues.

    So max size with these 1.5s is 35?

    I think it will look good, but im terrified that I will want to go bigger later.... You guys make it seem like 37s are the standard.

    Yoinkers you need to get on the trail in some friends lifted jeeps. I know thats not easy, as other guys may not give their keys to a rookie offroad, but ask.

    You need to get a taste of what lifts feel like, then you will be better suited to pick one.

    What shocks do you intend to install on this budget build? I am looking at a similar type of build using the 1.5" coils. I am looking at Rancho RS9000XL shocks, but not sure which length to get.

    FIRST POST!

    Welcome to JeepLab!

    I shot a message to Jeremy from rock krawler about his shock suggestions as far as size.

    A factor people don't realize is the flares. You want less down travel if you have flat flares, (more up travel), and you want more down travel if you have stock flares.

    Whats your flare situation?

    stock flares for now, but intend to get flat flares down the road. I am running 285/75-16 falken rocky mountain atsII. Did adding the springs throw the front and rear axles off any? Trying to figure out if I should go ahead and get adjustable track bars or not.

    Our budget build has the stock track bar.

    I don't think it needs to be changed. Alignment is always a good idea after you lift.
