    What size are your tires? I have same tires but they are 285/70/17 with stock sport wheels and rub like crazy. I believe there is a spacer on the wheels and do have coil over vehicle dynamics on Not sure if its just leveling or actually a lift but I need to do the cmc cuz its real bad off road

    Don't worry man, I'm with you. I have roughly 1.5"~ of lift and I rub with my 265/70/17 Falkens. Wheel offset has a lot to do with it.

    I need to do a CMC or something because I'm also getting tired of rubbing backing out of the driveway or when I compress on turns/offroading lol.

    Metal wouldn't have been much and you can use a zip cut to do it.

    I don't have a welder so I had a local shop do it and he did just that, grinder to cut it.

    It cost me $180cnd to pay someone to do it . Can't see buying the material to be any more than buying a pre made one from Bamf.

    I think the plates from BAMF cost 20 bucks. I used a welder from work and I had a grinder. So it was pretty cheap for me. I also like to do it myself if I can.

    I get that.
    My point was if it was 180 foot material and labor I can't see material being that expensive

    Would you cut that line all the way across the cab mount "face" (if that makes sense?)

    I wouldn't. Then you will cut into the bushing and close off the opening in that circle.

    I guess I mean, in case I'm not making sense, cutting along the face of the nub you're grounded to. not behind the nub, just flush with it... I suppose you could always just hammer the plate on the curve and then weld for a deeper CMC

    Yes you can do that. That's what I would do. I didn't need to cut much off. I just had a little rubbing.
