Re: Can I clear 33's?
On the front, it throws your steering (caster) way off. It can affect your
pinion angles on the front and the back. Longer shackle tend to make for
more sway, the springs may shift from sided to side. It also reduces your
departure and approach angles... the extended rear shackle is usually what
drags (or hangs up) coming off the rocks.

Re: Can I clear 33's?
Frank: How wide are you wanting to go? I have a 4'' spring lift on my 86''
CJ -7 And I run 33: 12:50= 15's 3.75 inch's on the wheel back spacing with
no rubbing to mention. That's as wide a tire as I will want to go and still
be able to get into some pretty tight places. In-between trees and the like.

Re: Can I clear 33's?
Jimmie I want to go with 33X12.50. I most likely will go with a 1 inch body
lift if I need to.
