I might just do that and see what happens. Worst case I just have to put a body lift on it.

I have the same lift with 31s and I have lots more room. I'm sure I could easily fit 33s.

If it rubs a tiny bit without the body lift, change the body bushings and it'll probably bring it up enough to keep from rubbing.
Also, if you're planning for a SAS and 35's, then set the ride height higher when you put an axle under the front.

yours is a 98 & his is a 86 big difference in body style & wheel well opening. Mine is a 94 with 03 front sheet metal & I fit 33s with out a body lift needed, but I have a 5.5 suspension lift & only had to trim 1.5" from back edge of front bumper. Now bumper has been replaced with a bronco ll custom stinger bar bumper.
