better luck next time. Looks to me like you have 30x9.50s on 3" of lift with a sagging rear AAL
you are wrong, it is lifted that high, and it has 33x10.5x15s
if you don't believe me, come to my house read the sidewall of my tire, and use a tape measure to measure the lift. Otherwise stfu

Um, considering that your tires look significantly smaller than everyone else who has 33s and that your axles are nowhere near as far down from the body as 5" of lift would put it. I'll tell you to take a picture of your control arm angles and your sidewall to prove it.

33x10.50s are not only a decent bit fatter than your tires, but they're also a significant amount taller

You're not fooling me, nor are you fooling anyone else who knows what 33s look like on an XJ

whatever man, I know exactly what I have if you dont believe me oh well, like I said drive up here to Michigan and look at it! If you look in my stats it says about 5.5'' lift, I measured the amount of inches between the center of the hub and the botom of the flare and it was 5.5'' more then the stock measurement. Dont call me out on what MY jeep has!

look... 33s


when I bought it it had 31s....


notice the difference in the gap between the 31s and 33s... Guess your gonna tell me my Jeep is blue too huh... well like I said I know what I have, if you don't believe me oh well.

To the thread starter I am sorry your thread got hijacked by someone telling me what MY Jeep has or doesn't have.

I'm wrong, I coulda sworn from that other picture you've got a 2" BB and 30s.

It must be the angle or something, doesn't matter either way. thats 5.5" of lift and BFG 33x10.50 ATs. no doubt about it.

Care to give a mental preview? I know I can't wait for summer so I can tear into my rig.

well lets see... half doors or no doors (not sure yet) umm no fender flares, cut and folded fenders, sliders, maybe some more engine goodies, some different 33s or maybe some 35s and lights... might have a roof rack, or light bar with 4 lights on that, some lights on the back, a new front bumper with winch.. wow I hope I get all this done lol.. it is hard to do all this with the Jeep being a daily driver lol

going doorless is super easy and soo worth the time invested to make it doable.

I've already gone flareless, cut and folded mine, again very worth it

sounds like you wanna do everything I wanna do minus the roof rack and lightbar.

Well I'm glad we got that figured out because 1995XJ_Sport's Jeep had 33's on it when it was sitting in my driveway this summer. And it sat higher than my XJ with 31's and a 3.5" RE lift which always run more like 5"...

well it would be one or the other.. not sure which yet.. I can get a KC light bar with 4 KC lights on it for 200 from my uncle but I am not sure yet... here is said light bar sitting on my Jeep for an idea of what it would look like..

I wish that was my garage.. It is at my uncles house he is renting...
