    I thought I'd post some pictures of the trimming. Haven't been off roading yet but I will need a body mount chop if I do. Lift set around 2.5" lift on Fox 2.5 C/O and BFG KO2 285/75r16

    Have your alignment shop shift the caster forward and see if that helps. Kept me from needing the BMC.

    +1.

    From the photos in the first post, I'll bet that if OP slows down and turns at the same time, the tires will rub at the rear. More caster will move the wheel forward and eliminate (or minimize) that.

    This first cut was low hanging fruit and real the only place I have been rubbing on road....then

    I am going for the phased cut in approach, this is the first cut, next will be that plastic and pinch weld, lastly the Cmc which I have the BAMF plates in the wings.....

    If I need it, this cut took care of all my d2d driving on road rubs....
