can a wrangler 4.0 or rubicon handel 33"x10.5" without a problem
hate to beat the dead horse but i have been searching for days now. i dont currently have a jeep yet but plan on it over the next few months when i can save up enough. I have been reading about everybody using 33" tires so i just wanted to make sure that the wrangler or rubicon can handel the 33" tires with only a lift and re-gearingand not having to change the stearing or axels

x2, np man, I ran mine for 3 years without regear... and you have a better gear ratio to begin with. is it 3.73 or 4.10 so your golden.

a ZJ tie rod would be beneficial, but not necessary immediately. but yes, nothing wrong with 33x10.5s with the proper lift and gears.
