Get a leveling kit, an add a leaf or blocks and run 35's instead. 37's will kill your IFS faster than you know.

No way to go to 37s without a full 6-7" lift kit. Im running 36s with a 7". Cheapest 6" lift I know of is Rough Countrys and it is $900. You could try finding some CST 4" spindles and then a 3" body lift but its going to depend on if YOU are doing the work or paying someone else to do it.

Cheap lift + 37" tires = broken CVs, even on "pavement queens"...

I don't think you have to do any cutting but if your going up so big and with big tires, don't cheap it out. Cause later down the road something might go wrong and you'll end up paying more to fix than it cost you to buy/install.

I didnt need to cut anything on mine but you must also pay attention to the widrth of your tires and the offset of your rims sp nothing toucheds
