    you answered your own question. its a body mount chop so you can run bigger tires...

    Edit: to be more specific you cut the body mount right behind the front tires. its kinda rounded and the "chop" consists of cutting the rounded part and making it flat so 33"+ tires dont rub it

    its behind the front tires. go look at stuff on your truck big tires might hit...

    its really the only metal the tire's diameter would hit

    Seeing the third gen section forced me to get a Ford...
    a bumper isnt going to save your tires from stuffing into the body mount.
