37" BFG ATs

Mid-perch is more important than the pinch weld mod. Some members in your situation haven't hammered their pinch weld, but I believe everyone with 37s is at least on mid-perch or equivalent front height.

Hmmm, I like the rake of the truck now, I feel like if I went midperch I would want to raise the rear by the same amount to keep the oem stance (is there a simple way to do that?)

Any midperch experts in Minneapolis area? Doing that solo myself is too intimidating...

Just add a .449 leaf to the rear. Have the shop make it almost as long as the main spring and as close to the eyelets as possible. This will give you a little added height after the mid perch.

Honestly, even with the mid-perch adjustment, there still is some of the OEM rake....it doesn't sit perfectly level. As mentioned above, I would do (and have done) the perch adjust lightyears before any pounding, cutting, grinding, etc...

Does anyone here have a picture of truck with stock wheels on Mid perch with these 37's?

I tried to get a set of these tire for my factory bead locks (on mid-perch). Every place I've checked with over the past month have said the BFG AT 37/12.50/17's are back ordered until further notice. I even bought them from 4wd.com...3 weeks later, only 1 had arrived and they couldn't give me any idea when the other 3 tires would arrive. I just said forget it and canceled my order.

Discount tire direct appears to have them in stock, maybe call them but I just added them all to my cart and there didn't seem to be any problem.

National Backorder on BFG 37 KM2 & KO til mid next month apparently.

Excuse the newb question, but you 37" guys, does a 37" spare fit where the stock spare is now? Or do you put it somewhere else or do away with a spare tire altogether?
