Hi! My name's Luck, I'm new here I'm looking for photos/info about how to fit 33" into IFS Rocky. There's a lot of stuff about solid axles, but it looks like making IFS more off road capable is much less popular... I would be thankfull for detail information from someone who made such an upgrade.
I did.
To put you Rocky on 33"s you need:
2" Bodylift
2" or 3" Suspension lift. (Wound up torsion bars + 2" longer shackles + 2" leafsprings)
Cut out the flares about 2".
But the IFS doesn't carry 33"s. My front susp after a year of driving looks like shit.
Now I'll put LJ78 axels under my rocky + sammi's t-case and 36" simex.
It must be good.

solid axle i know not wot ure looking for but....
2" body lift, 2" susp lift, big hammer, bit of persuading needed.
dont know how your CV's will handle 33's though
Thanks for all replys. To be true to You, I didn't bought Rocky yet. I've sold a Vitara and now I'm interested in something with turbo diesel engine for mild off road and longer trips. I consider LWB Rocky with IFS, that's why I'm asking about possible modifications (series I Pajero handels 33" with ease, only 1,5" bodylift is needed).
car does not rub at all, even on full articulation, dont forget 33" jungle trekkers actually measure 34" compared to some brands of 33" that measure 32" check out actual size of tyre first
