3" body lift and 37's

[rsm688]

I know a guy that just did the 2.5" leveling kit (torsion bars cranked/add a leaf) and had 37s on his H3. Said it was fine other than would rub if you hit big bumps. He said the gearing sucked at higher speeds and he swapped out his 4.56s for 4.11s out of the Alpha. Confused me why anyone would swap to 4.11s with an I5 and 37s, he said the gearing sucked at higher speeds and he swapped out his 4.56s for 4.11s out of the Alpha so that he could maintain decent speed on the highway but said it took a little effort to get it moving from a start lol.

Corey, the guy I am talking about lives in Mobile, I can put you in touch with him if you want to get his thoughts on his H3 with 37s. Still has his H3 but took off the 37s to turn it back stock as he got a new vehicle and is giving his H3 to his father. He's got a set of like new 37" nitto mud grapplers, with a 35" spare and some really nice wheels for an H3 he's trying to sell.

Wow, with 4.11's his gearing is about 20% higher than stock! I bet 3rd is almost the same as the old 4th gearing but first would be like second so I can believe its sluggish off the line!
