might get a little rubbing on the body do you have a body lift or just the suspension lift ?

how well do the 33"s fill out the guards when flexing etc

i'm running 2" body lift, 2" suspension, and drop hanger and putting in extended shackles to clear 35's. before i droppped the hangers with 35's it scrubbed alot on the front. when i was dropping the hangers we moved the front diff forward an inch and also thinking about moving the diff forward by re-drilling the spring perches. by doing this under right handside compression, the tyre might rub in the steering box but hopefully not.

so in your case maybe a body lift and move the diff might be the answer. as for the donk to have the power to pull the rubber around it'll be gutless. you'll probably need rockhoppers or dual transfers. ;)
