Mine is an 02 Av. I was leveled on 33s. I've since done some trimming and am running 35s without a lift. As others have mentioned, for overlanding, you'll be fine with the IFS. There are weak links in that front end that should be addressed. I installed the Rare Parts 1.5" tie rods, Cognito bracing kit, idler and pitman arms, Kartek straps to go with my suspension. But - you should definitely address the tie rods as a prerequisite.
