I'm betting the fronts will rub your control arms during a hard turn. Besides that, I'm not sure.

X2 You should easily clear the 37's with 5.5" of lift, but with only 2.5" of suspension lift you'll probably rub on the control arms

You will need to move the front axle forward, theres no way to clear the fender otherwise, At least get longer control arms to adjust for the leveling kit.
