Have a few questions which I am sure have been asked before but I am too lazy to dig through the archives. My EB's in Denver and I am having to order parts from work (VA) and have them shipped. My questions are below:

1. Will 33x12.5's fit with a 2" lift and an uncut body? I don't want to cut her up if I can avoid it.

2. What's the bolt pattern in order to purchase new rims....I have the org. drum setup.

3. As for the suspension lift, I am using this for a daily driver, VERY little off roading (unless I can bring the shotgun and smoke some dinner) so I don't want the dual shock setup...Which is the best kit for a reasonable price ? I got a quote from James Duff and a local shop in Denver. Anyone have good luck anywhere for under $800 ????


THanks to all for the help.

The first number represents the number of lugs and the second is the measurement between lugs. So 5 x 5.5 is five lugs that are separated by a measurement of 5.5 inches.

Like the others said you will have to cut the fenders to fit 33's with a 2 in lift but only the rear fenders need to be cut. Try rocky mountain suspension they have ad's in most offroad mags I bought a 2 1/2" skyjacker softride system from them a few years ago I think I paid $450 I really liked the ride but I cracked a rear leaf spring and now I'm running BC bronco's rear springs
