I need tire help....

[Chad.sox]

71 bronco with 2" body lift and cut out fenders. Can I get away with 33" tires? Next question is- I have Dana 30 front end, am I pushing it with 33" tires or should I stick with 31" tires? Thank for the input. Chad

My 73 used to have the 3" body lift with 33's, and the 33's looked a tad small to be honest. So with a 2" BL they'd probably look about right

I ran a stock dana 30 front end with 35's on the rocks for over a year and didn't break anything. You'll be fine on 33's. I can't answer your question about whether they will fit or not.

Depends on which flares I'm sure. I have all new stock height suspension with 32x11.50 tires on my 70. They rubbed a little on the radius arms when I turned sharp. One of my favorite things of driving old broncos is the amazing turning radius so I got the smallest wheel spacers I could find and they made a huge difference. See my pics and see how it sits. 33x10.50s you could get on no problem, but 33x12.50s you may have rubbing on the radius arms. Hope this helps some.

33" tires will fit with no lift if you trim the fenders right. With a 2" BL and a fender trim you should be fine. The D30 will hold up to 33" tires no problem if you drive resonably. You can break a D44 with 33s if you go crazy.;D

With any BL you will be fine. 33" will fit under a 2" SL with flares in the back so I would think it should work with a BL and flares set up right. Unless you drive like Bo Duke..

Thanks

This forum rocks. Exactly what I need, 33" it is. I'm not going to give the Duke boys a run anytime soon. Thanks for the responses!
