Swapped out my 35's to 37's on the same Mopar 2" lift kit and added dual Fox stabilizers , Gained 2" at the pinch seam but lost an 1" between tire and fender . No rubbing , turn radius is the same , handles like the Rig doesn't know there on there ! ....no hobbles , wobbles or Shimmy's .

Top pic was Day one 3/23/18 with 11 smiles on her , Bottom Pick was today 1/25/19 with 14,112 smiles on her ....Love m !!!

Wow, congratulations looks amazing. Making me want to go with 37s

This has been extensively discussed here. Well, basically it was an incompetent design by FCA. Rubicon suspension is about 1.5 inches higher than Sahara and Sport, but all three use the same length LCA. Therefore Rubicon has a lower positive caster (typically 4~4.5) while Sahara and Sport have 5~5.5. The low caster affected Rubicon's ability to track straight, return to center, and make other steering components more vulnerable. It gets even worse when installing Mopar lift as they give almost 3", and some forum members reported their casters after lift was in the lower 3.

For stock Rubicon, one cheap fix is to use Mopar 2" lift's LCA since they are slightly longer. It is perfect since too much caster can also cause steering issues. Mopar 2" lift LCAs are about $60 for a pair. This is much cheaper than even a caster bolt or correction bracket. Best of all, the old and new LCA look the same so warranty is preserved with even the pickiest dealer.

For lifted Rubicon, an adjustable LCA (Teraflex, etc.) should be used to correct caster.

Got the JKS 2.5” lift with the hd springs, Cooper stt’s 37x12.50 and Havok 17x9 wheels with -12mm offset put on today. Sorry for the not so good pics. It’s to cold out. Wednesday it’s supposed to be -40 with the wind chill.

I like them aside from the weight. You going to regear?

Beautiful !!!!
I've said this in many post but there's something about a white Rig that just separates itself from the others ....It's got a classy rich look but not afraid to get buried !

Really nice stance and aggressive look !!!

35's are 79 lbs and the 37's are 84 lbs ...The Rig doesn't know or react any different with either size on there

I'm daily driver of 90% in town and coastal roads but when it's time to get her out where she belongs then yes I will probably re gear
