33"s 4.88 at 65 is 2300 rpms I think, plus you can take off like a bat and around town its just fine, its what ill be running with my 60 44 setup after the first of the year

edit: it's all it's also easier on the engine and transmission during take off but rougher on the axle, but if you're running a Dana 35 and 33's you have a problem anyway

Yeah I like the look of them. I wish I could put a handle on the light so I could move it. I do a lot of coon hunting

Man, I just saw a XJ that was a cop car at the DeKalb junk yard not to long ago. Had the handles, was pretty stripped though, I'm sure they crushed it by now, seeing how this was back in October.
