    I had to do a cab mount chop and I removed my fender flares.

    damn thats what i was afraid of. i dont mind cutting the cab mount, trimming and banging in the pinch welds but i didnt want to take the flares off and be left with those holes. but it does look good and fills up the wheel wells real nice.
    one more thing, where did it rub on the flares? was is rubbing on the top where the tire would hit when stuffed?

    Well since you have a front bumper you should be good. Just do the cab mount chop and trim the back of the fender near the wheel well.

    Edit: And yeah you would most likley rub on the top of the flare when your wheels are stuffed.

    The 255/85 R16 KM2's that I had installed are awsome so far. I would reccomend them to anyone looking to do some offroading. No cab mount chop to make them fit either, just trimm or loose the front mudflaps. And a bit of trimming on the front bumper inner corner.

    Shitsville, as in "I'm in shitsville for working in Prince George, where the picture was taken, as opposed to being home in Aldergrove with my wife and kids."

    That being said, we've yapped before on here. Nice carpentry.
