Finally got the NEW 37'S on our RUBICON X build with NO LIFT!!!

We finally got our new Icon Rebound Pros and 37-inch Nitto Ridge Grapplers on the 2024 Wrangler Rubicon X!!! We installed them on a stock suspension set up and get it flexed out so you can see exactly where it rubs!! Well at least I thought it would rub... We also modify the stock spare tire carrier for 3rd brake light visibility and a better mounting set up!! I'm amazed at how well the 37s fit on our JL!!

The Nitto Ridge Grapplers measure out to 36.75" they are the closest thing to a true 37" tire

[@BreacherUpOffroadCustoms]

Correct 36.77” according to Nitto. I didn’t actually measure mine out to verify that size, but from what I’ve seen they are the closest to the labeled size compared to other brands. That’s why most people refer to them as “true to size” even though they aren’t quite there yet.

I have those same Icon wheels. Been running for about a year and they work really well and they've taken some abuse from rocks. I'm running 40" nitto trail grapplers

[@BreacherUpOffroadCustoms]

So far I love those wheels!! I’ve had zero issues and I’ve aired down lower than I should have for the trails around here. I’m hoping one of these days we will have 38s or 40s after some axel and steering upgrades!

[@EROD171]

Awesome job. I like where this is going.

[@BreacherUpOffroadCustoms]

Me too!! lol

[@TealOxAdv]

Nice build. Any issues with backup sensors?

[@BreacherUpOffroadCustoms]

Nope zero issues so far! Everything’s working like it should.

[@husker_nation]

Do you have any plans to get new drive shafts to adjust for the angles?

[@BreacherUpOffroadCustoms]

Eventually we will but not right now. That’s something I’ll do when we get a new lift.

[@BreacherUpOffroadCustoms]

In time I’d like to upgrade all the steering components including hydraulic assist as well as the axel shafts, but all of that will be after a lift kit.

[@husker_nation]

@@BreacherUpOffroadCustoms That's great to hear for future upgrades, but I'm actually surprised you went with the 37s first before you upgraded all the components to support those 37s. Such as ball joints, a lift, brakes, etc. Looking forward to future videos!

[@BreacherUpOffroadCustoms]

@@husker_nationThe newer axels “should” be able to handle the 37s without any problems. We’re not going too crazy on the trails, and I usually don’t abuse the skinny pedal when we’re climbing.

[@kurtjensen7930]

What gears did you go with?

[@BreacherUpOffroadCustoms]

We got 4.88s from the factory and I’ve been really happy with the gear and tire set up!

[@BreacherUpOffroadCustoms]

I will be doing a regearing on the Mojave Gladiator soon and I believe he is going with 5.13s and has 37s as well.

[@BreacherUpOffroadCustoms]

Also going to do a regearing on the Tacoma at some point and he’s going with 5.29s and 35s. I’ll try to talk about gearing options in both of those videos.

[@kurtjensen7930]

@@BreacherUpOffroadCustoms 5:29 pretty deep for 35’s! Had 4:88’s with 35’s pretty low for sure.

[@kurtjensen7930]

@@BreacherUpOffroadCustoms great choice!

[@terminally_will]

What is the factory lift on this?

[@BreacherUpOffroadCustoms]

The majority of what I've read says it's 1.5" on the 3.6L and diesel Xtreme Recons, and closer to 2" on the 392s. I am not 100% sure about that on the 2024 models; however, there was not a notable difference between my 24 and my dad's 22 XR. I do know the front sits level on the 24s, and the older model XRs have a 3/4" drop in the front. I believe that's because they started offering a factory winch on the 24s.

[@BreacherUpOffroadCustoms]

I hope that information helps!

@@BreacherUpOffroadCustoms definitely helps. Thanks!
