It'd be the same lift/clearance detail.

Would it be perfect? No, same as 35's & a 4" really isn't...but does it work? SURE!

As for the gearing, 4:10's w/35's are great but IMO, growing another 2"s larger isn't going to kill ya.
When I went from 39.5's to 42's, the difference was nominal.

Will 37's on a set of stock steelies look good? HELL YES.
This truck will be my dream work truck.I found a low profile utility bed,if it hasn`t sold yet,a couple weeks ago.It won`t see any extreme twistin`.Not exactly a mall cruiser.But,pretty much a 4wd for when you need it.I still will explore to it`s best ability.Just want some practicle (not that wheelin`isn`t practicle).I was going to put these on my Highlander before I sold it.I guess 3.54s aren`t that far off from 3.73s.i`m thinking I can put the HO52 in when lifting and have the 4.10s and the Dana 60 can follow shortly.If I sell the 3.54s I should be able to use the money to go over that axle.
