Default RC 3" suspension lift with 33's

Anyone running a 3 inch suspension lift with 33" tires. I am looking into putting on my 4 door a RC 3" coil lift but i currently have 33" km2's. I wont be able to upgrade till my 33's where out. Just curious what it would look like with a 3" lift and 33's. I did a search and realize there are alot of photo's of lifted jeeps but could not find a section of 4 doors with 3" lift. If there is one could u point me in the right direction.

I think 33" and a 3" lift will look just right, I have a 2.5" lift and 33's at the moment, and reakon it would look better with a little more lift. You should also consider the teraflex 2.5" lift, If im right, i've read time and time again that they yield around 3" of lift when fitted

Thats a good point about the TF lifts, looking at coil lift with shocks, not spacers, what are u guys getting for actual lift with the 2.5" suspension lift from TF....

I just received (today) my 3.25" RC lift. I am running 33" Cooper STT's. Should have the lift on by end of this weekend (if all goes well), I'll try and post some pics when I'm done.

I agree though, its hard to find a thread specific to 4 doors, 33's and 3". Partly because the search does not recognize " 3.25" ". I cant figure that out...

Nice lift but way out of my price range. The 3.25" is more in my budget. I have about 1500 to spend and want to do a few more upgrades to the jeep...

I am upgrading to the 2" OME HD coil springs from my current RE 2"BB...and reading on here and talking with Northridge I could see gains of 3.5" of lift with the HD coils. I was flipping from 2" OME HD spring coils to TF 2.5" coil springs.

Reason I am upgrading is my stock springs sag about 1/2" with just putting the winch box on my stock bumper. as I am adding a winch and LoD bumpers. Northridge figures I could be sitting around 3" of lift with bumpers and winch which I think will look okay with 33's. Kinda in the same boat with the 33's as I have to wait till they wear out for 35's.

This is a picture of Northern Wrangler in the Western Canada section he has the 2.5" TF coil and running 33's Duratec.

That is a good price, considering what I paid for my build list. I have purchased the RC 3.25", LCA's, quick disco's, and dual stabilizer. How can I get one of those adjustable track bars? I didnt think you carried those!
