Let's talk about 37's!!!

So I'm just going to put it out there. Is there anyone running 37's that is NOT sased? I have noticed that there is someone on the forum that is making coil over mounting brackets, will doing a coil over swap give you more lift if you want? I know how to get more lift in the rear, explorer leaf swap, right?

Let's hear your guys thoughts and idea's

I can't think of anyone off the top of my head... IMO that's too much for the IFS on these trucks!

^ I was trying to think of his sn. I think they were closer to 36s but like 16 inches wide. XP1 something I think.

You can do it, but it is a lot of st-ess fo- the f-ont wheel bea-ings not to mention half shafts and even the D35 diffe-ential.

EDIT: https://www.ranger-forums.com/members/sheen-33816/ link to his profile. His stats still say 33's but im for sure he bumped up to 36's and I think eventually 37's as well. still IFS

True, I don't plan on running 37's yet lol. Just bought 35's not to long ago. Just wondering if anyone was running 37's though.
