33's on a 4.5 inch lift

[vetteboy]

I also enjoyed mine with 33's and 4.5" lift.

Then I just started breaking too many front axle parts. Now at 7.5" and 39.5s.

Just trim. It's fun once you decide to do it. Rusty's 4.5 on 33x12.5s

You can't fit 33's with a 4.5" lift you will flip over...

Perfect combo imo. 35s would be great, if you want to spring for better axles

the trimming is what scares me, im 18 and this is my first jeep and ive bought it and everything on it and i dont wanan just screw up the body to much cuz i drive it every day. but ill probably end up trimming.

any suggestions or anything i should watch for?

I started with an angle grinder, but hated the warping it did to the metal. I finished with using one of those air needler thingys (the one with the little cutting plate...) and it worked great! Cut through the metal like butta

re6130 , 3/4 in. spacer in front . 2 in. bumpstops and relocated stock flares .
it still just rubs the inner fender in the front when fully stuffed , but not bad enough to fix .

Rusty's 4.5" front/rear, RE 1.5" shackles, 33" BFG MT KM's, no extended bumpstopping (yet), Clayton long arms, Ford 8.8 rear...

Trimming front and rear (relief cuts, hammer method) Pretty easy, just take your time and fully plan it out. I did mine with a jig-saw... :shhh:
posing:

The fronts rub a little on the arms at full turn, and the rears still get hung in the fenders so adequate bumpstopping is next on my to-do list. :rtm:

4.5 Crusty's lift pack. I did add 1.75" front spacers to compensate for the bumper/winch.
