Nope. XJ/MJ/YJ/TJ/LJ/KJ use a 5x4.5 bolt pattern for the wheels. JK Wranglers (starting in '07) are different.

If my long arms aren't adjusted correctly, could that cause my jeep to lean noticeably to one side? I'm almost positive that they are correct though

That could only be possible if they were totally out of wack like bending a coil to cause the dip but not you would notice

That's what I thought. I've literally checked everything else. I don't know what the deal is.

What coils are you running? Maybe one was just weaker and sagged sooner

I'm not all in yet but I can pretty much tell you those 33's will never work without suspension modifications. I may be wrong, though.

Sure ya can.

You're going to have to make sure your stock bump stops are in great shape to keep the tire out of the fender and you're going to have have to CUT the bejesus out of your fenders.

But it'll work.

You won't have ANY uptravel but it's do able.

See.



33"s tires. No lift.
