Default 94 Grand rear lower control arms

94 Grand V-8 my son just picked up for $350. Looks to have a little lift, 31s have a decent amount of clearance. Will measure later.
The question is, is there any other Jeep arms that could be used from the JY to push the axle back slightly? Son is wanting to put 33s on, am sure they will hit/rub by the rear door/rockers. Don't think any amount of cutting and beating will do it.

Now before you suggest aftermarket arms, it makes no sense to spend half of purchase price.
The vehicle will not be road legal. Only used to bomb the trails and back roads of N. Mich.

Btw, searches that I found seemed to only deal with arms for use on the front of XJ and ZJs , unless I missed something.

A taller lift is all you can do,If you push the axle back any you will have to move the spring mounts and rear track bar to match.

Well I measured 22" center of axle to bottom of fender, maybe someone can give me an idea how much lift it has.
Also has about 2" between tire and corner of rocker, which may need some love with a hammer. Next time I go to the bone yard I'll look around. Don't know if they'll have anything as new as a WJ.
