Re: 4 inch lift with 33s?
Nobody else has answered you so I will.
I'm running 33s with no lift, so surfed around & can't find a pic of 4" lift with 33s. Here is a link http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s....php?p=4002477 to a few with 2" & 33s; I think that looks really good. IMHO 4" of lift needs 35" tires to look right. Look around in the sticky "How about some pics of your 4x4" http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=113533 and there may be one in there somewhere.

Re: 4 inch lift with 33s?
Here is my 68 with 4" lift and 33's. If you plan to use your truck for wheeling then 35's are really too big to stuff without trimming. I have 35's now but it is just an urban 4x4.

I'm not sure, the PO didn't know. I need to do some measuring to see what it really has

Re: 4 inch lift with 33s?
I had 2" on my old K5 with 33's I thought anything more would have given it the tiny tire look IMO

Re: 4 inch lift with 33s?
Mine turned out pretty good. Its not quite done but almost. I think it would look better with 35s but the 33s work.

Re: 4 inch lift with 33s?
What lift height did you end up going with?
