Arrow Pics Of 3inch Lift And 33's......

Well i have been looking for some 33/12.50/15s ever since i got the lift (3months ago) and i finally scored some....It cost me $50 plus my 235's i am very happy i tested them out yesterday in some mud that i had problem's with in 4wd and went thru it no problem in 2wd.......Today i cut the rear fender's and tomm. i will be doin the front i also might be getting some black steelies for free with 3.75 backspacing as well.....

Alright these are not the best pics but it's better then nothing i will have better pics tomm. after i trim the front's.....

Nope no spacer's i had NO problems with rubbing on anything even before trimming the fender's.....The only thing i will say is it does rub on the LCA's at just about full lock and when i make turns over 40mph i can here the tire rub the leaf spring pack but hopefully i can get these Cragar wheels with 3.75 backspacing for free and that will solve all my problems....

So you stuffed 33's just fine on the RC 3" AAL? I'm doing the same lift in a week and after my 30x9.5's wear down I'm looking to run 32's or 33's. How much fender did you have to trim? Was it a pretty easy job?

I really didnt have to trim nothing but i decided to anyways just to be on the safe side.....The rear wasnt hard to do and im sure the front isnt hard either....
