I wouldn't go no more than 3" lift with 33's. Because on the plus side, depending on your offroading trails you'll have plenty of flex with that setup. Thus, keeping your wheels on the ground for constant traction.

Just thought I'd chime in.

how much are people really getting from that lift? My 3" teraflex gave me over 4" and I think 33's would look retarded under there. If that kit gives 3" or less it will look ok I think.

you can run it with the 33's and then upgrade later when you get the cash flow

the lift should give me about 4 but i would think after i add my other goodies ( bumpers, winch, and sliders) won't that drop the lift down? plus it is my understanding a lift will settle after a while...t/f?
