As of right now i have 31's with a 4" lift, once i did the TJ flare set-up, I realized that not only could i fit 33x12.5's, but it would also look a lot better.
I have a d 30 in front and the 8.25 in the rear with stock gearing right now. My question is, Can i run 33's on a d 30 with no problems? What gears would work best? 4.10 or 4.56 ? It's a 5 spd that does mostly highway driving as a DD, wheeled in the mud. no rocks.
As for bump stops, I'm aware of the hockey puck solution in the front. but as for the rear, I have extended bump stops in the rear already. When i flexed it the last time, it looked like the 31's fit just perfectly.
My plan is to follow through with this set up as soon as i can get some good feedback.
Oh and I've decided to go with a powertrax no slip system in the rear. and leave the front open for now.

Your feedback is greatly appreciated

Check out DPG Offroad, they make adjustable rear bump stops that attach to the u-bolts.

I was gonna say the same thing. DPG has a nice kit.

thanks. so 4.56 will still be acceptable on the highway?
Nice. I found a few things a would like to get DPG too.

You won't be sorry. Dirk at DPG is an awesome guy. Email him and he responds quickly and ships stuff really fast.

go with it ive seen them wheelded the **** out of them and don't break

D30 will be fine. 4.56s for sure. thats my setup..

As for bumpstops...fenders for now
