Guy...you're already so far past "all good" that I don't think it'd make a shit bit of difference. :laughing:
A lil bit of searching & reading goes a long way...

Agreed. You never get threw school without doing your homework right? Same applies here.
Ill offer a little advice though. Get rid of that block in the back and go to the junk yard and find yourself some dodge dakota or chevy s10 leafs. They will provide 4-4.5". With your shackle that sits you at 6ish in the back.
Keep the front coils and add a 2" spacer. Look into some type of long arm upgrade. Companies to look at... TNT Customs, Rubicon Express, Clayton Offroad, Rusty's Offroad, RockKrwaler, TeraFlex, BDS, or Full Traction.
If your intending to go with 37's or 38's then you will indefinatly need axle upgrades. The biggest you can go without complete destroying stock axles is 35. Axle upgrades get exspensive fast.
I say set up your rear better and leave it alone until you learn more.
