My 85 with 4" and 31's was pretty close, with 33's you will probably have to let air out of the tires.

i measured my 79/86 yesterday, and as it sits, i should JUST clear with 6" and the 33" tires that are on it now( i will be running 35s). i've got a set of 30" roll arounds that should get me another 1.5" of clearance, bringing the grand total clearance to a whopping 2"

I'm saying yes.. The '69 in sig is sitting on an '85 blazer frame with a 4" lift and 31's fits, but is close.

As a side note, the garage door height may be an issue.
Probably less than 6'-10" clear opening.
