I am doing this EXACT lift, tires and rim combo... looks sharp. Glad you posted it. Was worried the 37x12.50s would get too wide. DO you have a shot from the front showing how much tire is out? Also, any rubbing at full turn?
I had to use a spacer kit to keep from rubbing. I had seen others post that it didn’t rub without, but they tried it without the spacers and it definitely was rubbing when you were at full turn.

Overall I am still happy with the look.

Thanks for the front photos. Thats exactly the look I am after. I have 1.5" Spacers on my JKRU with stock rims... Spyder I believe... What spacing did you use? Sorry for so many questions. Just ready to get this part over with so i can start fabbing.

Yours is Absolutely the best looking and most likely the most capable Gladiator on this forum.

Thanks!

Right now I'm driving without a front driveshaft, so I'm less capable than most base Jeeps :crying:
My front driveshaft arrived yesterday, hopefully I have some time this weekend to get it installed and change my rear gear oil.

What drive shaft did you go with? Did you happen to journal any of your build? Plan on posting it?
