Figure that there will be a loss of power even at 33's with stock gearing you'll not be using 5th much anymore or you will be shifting all the time. Also 5th is the weak link if your trans is the original. If you upgrade to a crawler box also consider moving up to a trans with a stronger 5th gear like 85 and up.
