Regret 37s?

[aug0211]

Now I have a problem that maybe someone has solved. Now that I have a 37 on the tire carrier, it is interfering with the proximity sensor on the rear bumper. Makes alarm go off in reverse. Can the two closest to the tire be disabled or disconnected and the outside two still operate?

Mine did this with the relo bracket, too I’m hoping @joe@zauto can maybe help with a fix from the TazerJL.

Without relo bracket, there’s some rubbing on both sides of the bumper for me, especially on the passenger side. We’ll see if I keep the relo off or put it back on... :/

I too have a 37"spare hanging on the back of the Jeep, but I also installed the Mopar hinge reinforcement kit and the Mopar oversize spare relocation kit, which pops the sapre up about two inches so no interference with the backup sensors.

Hi if you can help me with this I would really appreciate it. How tall is the Jeep all doe like yours, I want to make sure I can clear my garage door? I have 7 feet clear.
Thank you
Amen

It will fit...I believe it’s 74” at the highest point...I have a 7 foot garage..just make sure it will clear your garage opener.

Mine clears just fine on a 7 ft door

Ive been chasing down some steering feedback in terms of wobble for a few weeks now. Got a Fox Steering stabilizer and got the alignment within spec to what Mopar wants with their lift (at least what could be adjusted) and its to an acceptable point as I feel like at this point its just the name of the game with 37s and the mopar lift.

Thinking back at it now, I think I would have been good with that new Teraflex 1.5" lift with falcon shocks and my 315-70s I had before this setup. I still love the look, but I feel like bumping up to 37s you certainly notice it compared to 35s from 33s.

The ride on my 37 is much better that the stock BFG 33’s. Being a heavy tire, it feels more substantial. With more tire on the ground, it rides better. Still playing with tire pressure. Went from 37 to 32. Going down to 30 to see if it gets even better. I also had alignment checked and reset. Going to have the dealer check the electronics in the steering to see if it is correct

Are you trying to make it better then? I dunno, I feel like from a daily standpoint the stock lift on 35's was much more enjoyable.

Not really. I am saying going to 37’s the ride got better. I am still on stock springs with a RE spacer lift

I am going 35s It is my first wrangler. i am also going small lift 2 to 2.5 inch lift. My is a Rubicon and it is on a train coming end of week i hope.

That looks like the same set of wheels I just put on my 2018 JLUS. It's a great look! I ended up in a 4' mud "puddle" last weekend with 35"'s and a 2" lift. I was able to get out of it, but the 37's would have made it much easier.

Does anyone here have the mopar lift with 35’s and park in the garage at home? I’m thinking it’ll fit but was wondering if anyone knows for sure.

Mopar lift and 37’s. Fits in a regular garage no problem.

The Rock Slide is what my wife wants me to install, she is height challenged.



I agree with this. I decided 37's on a JLUR are a great fit, I would not make the same decision on a JK...
.

I have 37’s on mine with DV8 Beadlocks...Rides great!! I am running KO2’s which are much lighter than MT’s and they serve my purpose of snow and sand and do fine in the mud...I spent 26 days off-road in September and would’ve really had to try to get this Jeep stuck. I average 19 on the highway. Wife will get this one after I order the new JT!! Can’t wait

So you have a stock JLUR with 37's? I'm ok with removing the rear plastic piece as I plan on replacing the rear bumper and that piece is just extra anyway. The question I have is what is the backspace/offset of your wheels and do the tire stick out beyond the body a bit?

I had 37s on my jlur for a month with no lift. I liked the shorter, squaty looking Jeep, or at least it didn’t bother me at the time. I gutted the fenders and installed some arctec inner fe

nder liners which is less expensive than actual fenders. They sell some hardware that beefs up the fender and gives you a turn signal. Not the all time best kit but I like it.

I think the pics i posted are all pre ‘lift’ - the one on the beach has about 1.5”.

so I’m back in forth on whether I want 35s or 37s for my JL rubicon... everyone is telling me to go with 35s on my first Jeep..

Yet I haven’t found one person on the site that regrets 37s.. but I see daily where someone gets 35s and wishes they were 37s

So... anyone regret their 37s?

No regrets Mopar Lift with 37” tires!!! Not quite done but I love it. I don’t drive it everyday, If I had a lot of driving every day I may have gone with 35’s but the 37’s look soooo good.

One more thing, I am adding the Rockslide power step this week, with 37’s you have to climb in and I have 3 kids 12,12,&15 and not to mention my wife, it is tough for them to climb in and out. I think a power step or at the very least a step is necessary for 37’s.

Hope this helps.

changed from Nitto to Goodrich KM3's. So far im not impressed with the traction on ice. My nits did much better.

Talk to my Dealer this afternoon, as my JLUR should be on its way to their facility. We talked about some of the items I'm looking at rolling into the Financing. He said he spoke with the main tech that does all the lifts, and he mentioned that if I was going to do 35" Tires and the Mopar lift, I should consider a 4" lift kit. I choked. Here all this time I've been debating if I should step up to 37's. with the Mopar lift. WTF?
