Wheel spacers are illegal.

I doubt you will get 33s with SPOA engineered either somehow...

SPOA has been done to death.

You want different?

Do RUF with OME rears all round, no body lift, and just do a virtual lift. Chuck your 33's on with some decent offset rims and enjoy outdriving all the lifted rigs.

mate, i dont think you know what you want at all.
as its been said 100000x before having shite loads of lift doesnt make for a capable rig. Cut ya guards, keep the COG low if ya wanna run 33's, but remember all the other things you will need to change as well in order to run 33's properly, i'd really think twice if this is too be your daily driver as well.

SPOA = FAIL .....unless setup right. Plus it's now impossible to engineer in WA due to changes to the laws. Aliens sierra was the last sierra to be fully engineered spoa in WA.

As the others have said, get some 2 inch lifted REAR springs all around SPUA, either do a gaurd chop (which is defently what i would be doing if i had the chance again) or put a 2inch body lift in. You should be able to fit 33's in, plus should flex pretty decent.

This is exactly what I'm running on mine with 31s. Taking out the bodylift and doing the necessary clearancing to make it work without was the best thing I've done. Going up to 33s is a problem with the front tyres binding on the WT springs whilst turning, not a clearance issue. If you've got a wide track you'll need to change your spring spacing or go custom rim offset (read bearing wreckers) to get any kind of turning circle with 33s. What are you driving now? Why do you want to go so big so quick? Sounds like you just want a monster truck thats legal. Those words don't go together anymore.
