Hi all.
Found this forum looking for help fiting 33's on 2.5" lift.
Started wheeling in '98 with an '89 Grand Wagoneer back in New Brunswick Canada... swamps, more mud and tight forest trails.
Moved to Az and began wheeling my '97 xj in the desert (which is wayyy more enjoyable) in 2000.
My blue 5spd 4dr XJ sits at 2.5" lift via OME springs/shocks, RE control arms, sye, 4.56's, true tracs, currie steering, c-rok rear bumper, t’n’t bellyup/chassis reinforcing and so on.
It will be sporting a RigidCo front bumper(painting it today), 33x10.5 tsl's and a 4:1 next time I head to the trails(2 weeks).

That's all I know.
Link is a picture of my rig.

Welcome to the forum. That's a nice rig you've got there. How are the Trutracks treating you?

Thanks for the welcomes.
Prosonic, thanks for the compliment on my rig.
I like the true trac's very much. My rig is my daily driver, and on the road they are invisible. In rather tricky situations, I sometimes find it difficult to operate all 3 pedals… hopefully the 4:1 will solve the problem, or, I’ll put a hand throttle on the shifter/stick.
