Thinking of going with a 2" BL and then running 33x13.5 on stock rims.. Will this place to much stress on my steering??

aparently stock size is too much for stock steering. No matter what get an upgraded steering system.

I'm planning a set of 33x13.5 LTB's as play tires...on stock rims, with a 2" BL.

And yeah...the steering is vulnerable....I have the Calmini steering kit...and my tie rod ends are toast about now as it is.

My wifes X is bone stock and her centerlink and tie rods are wore out already with only 50k. Luckly my steering is major overkill so I won't have any problems for a looooong time

well like we said ANYTHING over stock will start to cause problems. And 33-13.50 are 3 sizes up. You will definatly start to see problems. Mainly when you go get an alignment. They tell you they can't align it with a worn centerlink.
