For those who have 40's how much more power did it sap out of the vehicle over 37's? How noticeable was it in a seat of the pants feel?
I'd still go with the bolt on coil overs if only because they would offer more flex.
Pm sentInput always appreciated Wayoflife! Have a wonderful New Year everyone!
FYI - will be unloading quite a bit of stuff for those wanting to step up to 37s. Could make a good New Years present! I'll post on appropriate thread.

Depends on what gears you're running. Assuming you were running 5.13's with 37's and then bumped up to 5.38's like you should with 40's, the difference won't be too bad. If you were already running 5.38's, the change is very noticeable.
I am geared at 5.13 now and on 37's. If nothing else were to be changed I am wondering how much worse the tires alone would suck the life out of it.

Thoughts on running 40's and bolt on coilovers? I plan on doing 60/60 in the next few months, so axles will be covered. Just curious as to how the bolt on co's will handle the bigger axles and 40s. I don't plan on going DTD at all since I'm not bombing deserts. Thoughts?

They work fine...
It's hard to tell from the photo, but it looks like your rubbing your coilovers at full stuff.

I don't understand what your concern would be? The bolt on coilover kit from Evo will play extremely nice with 40's and bigger axles.

As a daily driver or crawling on the rocks, I totally agree. Driving hard and fast across the desert, no way I'd want to do it. Hell, I did it with 37's and now run DTD's on my both my JK's. Of course, this isn't something he said he would be doing.
Thanks guys. As mentioned before I'm not driving fast off-road, but more slower rock crawling and ledges. I just wanted to make sure that this was an ideal situation before getting too far ahead of myself.
"Ideal" is relative to the person looking to go coil overs. If it were me, I personally would still run the DTD kit only without the bypass shocks.

That's definitely a better option for future upgrade potential.

So it's possible to upgrade to DTD minus bypass shocks, if I already have the bolt ons? That is great to know for the future. Thanks.
