I was wondering with a 4.5 inch lift and 33 inch tires would i have to do any cutting on the body and the suspension to make everything right? any other help full tips are wellcome.

With 4.5" at full flex you'll need to trim quite a bit on the front fenders with 33's the rear fenders don't need quite so much cutting.

What size tires would would i have to run without doing any triming?

You're going to want 32's with the 4.5" lift they wont rub. that's what's recommended.

31s or 32s, 32s you might have to trim i tad bit i would think.

you don't have to trim that much for 33's

Ok, I was told when I bought my Jeep it had a 4.5 inch lift ( i think its more and it actually measures out to be a little more) so judge as you may, but here are some pics for you...

on 31s..



and 33s



as you can see no trimming (yet) I plan on replacing my pass. fender and at that time I am going to trim all fender because I am going to go to 35s

Have you disconnected your swaybar??? It is true they don't rub, as long as swaybar not disconnected. With out swaybar, grab a sawzall, grinder, snips, or whatever you have that will cut metal cuz you will need it.

I still have my sway bar connected (for now). The only thing mine rubs on is the flare on the drivers side when I turn left, I can turn sharper and it stops rubbing, or i can turn wider and it stops. I dont know any truth to your statement though..

Take your swaybar off and drive on that snow pile. The 33's are gonna eat that flare.


As you can see there is still some rubbing, even though fender is cut.

I plan on taking it off in the spring when I do my body work.. Forgot to mention my 33s are only 10.5 wide so they stuff a little better then a 12.5
