Has been a great week for my wife, she finished the basics of her build. I will probably start a build thread for her because she has a lot more on her list to do. Going to cross post this to a few threads I have been involved... just call me Captain Redundant :D
Lift is a MetalCloak 2.5 Game Changer including tie rods and drag link. Wheels are Icon Compression. Tires are 35" KM3.

Nice looking jeep. Did you regear with the 37" tires? If not, have you noticed any performance issues?

Looks Great!! Looks like the Rugged Ridge Venator bumper with overrider bar that I haven’t found released yet? Where did you find it? Looks awesome! How do you like it?

I've got a Moab which has LSD in the back. Given the issues with the LSD (this is a global issue), some locker manufacturers aren't touching this setup. As I want to do lockers and gears at the same time (save on installation costs), this is on indefinite hold.

With that said, there will be some performance degradation. Anyone that says there isn't, is fooling themselves and you. The question then is, is it bad enough to warrant a regear. For me, the answer is no. Our Moab (3.45 Sahara gearing) is ok. Not great, but far from bad. I have a V6 and an 8 speed. The 8 speed transmission mitigates a lot of the performance lost. Enough so that I'm ok with it.

Will I regear? Yes, at some point. But after living with it for 4 months, I can honestly say it isn't high on my list of upgrades.
