    Uhhh, do you have wheel spacers? I heard you could not run 33" tires on stock rims on a 3" lift without wheel spacers?:confused:

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    I think you are referring to what is called "The pinch weld mod". It costs nothing to do.

    I don't know if this applicable to 2nd Gen's. If it isn't the WW's suggestion will fit the bill.

    The part you're referring to is just wheel well plastic. Cut it off.

    A few bolts are different.
    I'm totally confused here. mods under your SN say 6" lift a 3" bodylift but the OP says 3" lift. which is it you have and exactly where is it rubbing?
