Do you have room for larger tires? I had 4" w/ 35" BFGs on an 85. You could get someone to measure the length of their shock at rest and compare to yours. (someone that knows how much lift they have). Do you have blocks in the rear, you could measure the block height @ the center of the axle tube.

Put in a 2" body lift. 35s will fit for sure then if 33s fit now.
