[QUOTE="TRevs, post: 438666, member: 20654"] My YJ came with 33’s and no body lift. It had 2.5 inches from the leafs, and I think another 1.5” from shackles. It rubbed a little at full lock, which was a result of backspacing. I never took it off road and fully flexed the suspension. My limited experience says 33’s will work with 4” springs, BUT if you’re not needing a lot of ground clearance, you could consider downsizing your tires. I have 30’s with the 2.5” springs and stock size shackles, and it is much nicer to drive than when I got it. I imagine your steering is loose and wanders around. With smaller tires I get better handling, way less road noise, and more power out of the stock gears. [/QUOTE]
