issues with 33's
hes talking sierra,
once again, you will have to extend bumpstops, just becuase you have 5 inches of lift doesnt mean your axel is going to travel any less up into the guards(if the springs actually move), you may also have to look at firewall clearance, and maybe think about moving your axel forward.
so, in short, make sure your bumpstops are positioned correctly, everything else should be fine.

NT front spring spacing is a must if you want any steering without scrubbing tyres on springs.
i broke 3 axles in one go last weekend running richmond lockers and
33" simex jungle trekkers. i think thats some kind of record.
you will probably need to move your diff forward a bit which is really easy
as i have similar lift and found no amount of footwell bashing would fix the scrubbing on the gaurds. i run f100 rims with 2" wheel spacers and they dont hit the springs on full lock, but this may be an issue you have to find your way around aswell.

The calmini kit incorporates bump stop extensions and doesn't warrant the gear if they are not usedSpike_Sierra wrote:hes talking sierra,

Make sure if going wider than 9.5" tyres that you have a negative offset rim.
