I have 4:10's with 35's on my '69. My old '72 had 3:73's with 35's and it was a little to high a gearing. The 4:10's are much better. For 33's, I'd think you'd need a minimum of 3:73's. I would also think you'd be able to find them used fairly easily from someone going with higher gear set. Check on CK5.com or Pirate4x4.com for some 3:73's
