Can anyone tell me what all i have to do to my 99 classic to be able to fit 33 12.50's on a 3" lift? any help is useful, oh and i have already done research using the search thread.

 

Get a cutting wheel and go at it. My friend runs 35x12.50s on a 3" lift with long arms no rub at all front or rear

 

Make sure you've got good backspacing and be ready to trim a bunch of your fenders. Its not unheard of. Others have done it. Do be ready for your gas mileage to go down!

 

I see a cutoff wheel, a pack of replacement discs, and a "bfh" in your future . I used a jigsaw on my front fenders and the cutoff wheel on the rear. I'd also get larger bumpstops.

 

i have no problem with cutting i am kinda lookin forward to it to be honest haha the only thing i am nervous about is takin all the plastic off and then havin space on the sides of the front and rear bumper and lookin like crap :/ will cutting take off the value in the future if i ever wanna sell it?

 

It could either add or subtract value depending on the buyer! Someone lookin for a BA offroader might be willing to pay more for the fender mod, etc... Anyways, bigger bumpstops for sure and be careful trimming the rear- the pinch weld isn't too far in. Also look into the thread "LOW COG suspension setup tips/tricks"

 

I'm at 4.5 front 5'' rear (stupid New rc short leafs screwing up my shackles angle)

I have soooooooo much space over the top of my 31s (they are actually 31 most say they look like 33's) That I could easily fit 35s without rubbing and still room to flex, so cut and youll be all set

 

Jigsaw is easier, faster and cleaner. :shrug:

 

Thanks for all the info! Whatever i wind up doin i will let youns know.

 

I'll take the jigsaw pepsi challenge any day with my cut off wheel and make the jigsaw look bad.

 

Jigsaw is easy and fast on the front. On the rear the inner lining caused me a few broken blades so i did a mix of cutoff wheel and jigsaw. either way it's clean

 

I agree i work with metal ALOT between school my dads buisness and my jeep, i def think it is easier but thats just an opinion.... everyones got them just like buttholes and most of them stink!!!

 

x2.

i ran 35s on 4.5 w/no rubbing. trim and bfh.
