On my '21 Willy's I have a leveling kit installed and currently have 35s on it. I'll be looking to get new tires some time this year and am considering going to 37s if it will work. I'd like getting that additional inch of lift and think it'd look better with the slightly larger tires. Assuming what I do with the truck is a factor. I haven't and don't plan on doing any rock crawling with it but it is a slim possibility. Actually plan on doing some trails this summer but nothing extreme. Also will be towing a 10' open trailer with my bike on it when we go down to Tennessee this summer as well so that could be a factor as well.

I'm on 35's with my max sport and going to 37's in the next few weeks. I'm running 4:10's and most people will agree I'll hate it and want to go with 4:88's or 5:13's to make the drivability decent again and to see 8th gear. You're 3:73's will obviously be worse. I'll try it for a while and then make my decision on re-gearing.

You ddin't say if your current 35's are 12.5's or 11'.5 wide. I assume they are 12.5 wide. You'll need non factory wheels with the correct offset / back spacing to run the 37's (which I assume you have now)

I don't think your 3:73's will enjoy towing at all regardless of how light the load is. But everyone's threshold of drivability is different. You might have no problem only seeing 6th gear on the highway. Only you can answer that :)
Good luck with your decision

If you are a gasser. You will need to regear. If you have oem rims. You will need spacers for clearance. I have a set of 1.75" Synergy spacers for sell. If you want, PM me.
