I am putting a 4.5" Rough Country Lift on my 01 XJ. I am looking to put General Grabber Red Letter 33x12.50 and also the Bushwacker Flat Style Fender Flares. Does anyone know if I would have to trim my fenders at all? Or not even go as high as 33s? I just dont wanna have to go through trimming anything.

Also, would I only need a t-case drop, or will I need a SYE as well? (for the 4.5" lift)

 

Most have to cut with 31's. The flares require you to cut also. What year is your XJ? If it's 00 or 01 then yes. Sorry, just saw it's an 01.

 

Search for the "all lift and tire questions" thread. You should find all your answers there.

 

im running RC4.5" with 32x11.5R15 only rub i get is at full turn on the LCAs my rims i believe are 4 or 4.5" backspacing but not sure as i have never checked and they came with the jeep, IMO i could easily run 33x12.5R15s and not rub, keep in mind this is not fact just my perspective based on what i have.
