I have a 3" PA and plan on putting longer shackles and coil spacers.
Right now I fit 32" tires, and I am just wondering if with the shackles and spacers, I could fit 33" tires??

I think a guy by the name of Bigcheck1 has that set up.

Offroader_69_me had that setup too.
 






Ok cool, just wondering if 33" would fit.
:bounce:
 






yes I ran that setup for about a year and a half. I used my stock wheels for over a year, which made the tires rub a little at full lock on the sway bar and radius arm, and a little at full stuff in the rear after going to a 15x8 with 3.75 backspacing all that was gone. I think it is a great combe that performs well and is nice and cheap!
 






i have a 91 with 3" body life and shackles in the rear u will fit fine but there is one problem, i was just about to get me 33 12.5 then i checked my axel codes if in your door jam it says axle 45 than u have 3.55 gear and im tood that my truck will have no power with 33 and 3.55 gears so check your axle code and hope that u dont have 3.55 gears , im staying with me 31s now i need my low end . in the summer i tow a 3 setter wave runner and the boat ramp i got to i a 45* angle it taks a lot of tork to get back up.
