    Hey guys, reporting in, just got the 5100s all around installed today and they are head and shoulders way better than that stupid revtek spacer kit i had in it before.
    But now that I have an add a leaf in the back and everything is leveled now (had a saggy leaf pack) the front rubs like crazy around all turns, i have 285/75/R16 duratracs on pro comp 8069 rims. I think its rubbing on the body cab mount and I just cant seem to find the thread for it. Could someone head me in the right direction?

    Also, could anyone tell me how much plastic i can trim off the inner wheel well without any problems occuring? the tires seem to be rubbing there too.

    Any thoughts would be helpful. Would take and post pics but its dark now, ill take some in the morning.

    Eibach coils. 5100's all around. AAL. WickedFlow
    Do you have the 5100's set to .85? You'll want to make sure you do, to better clear your tires.

    I have same setup with 5100's at .85 and a 4.25 backspaced wheels. With 285/70/17 tires. I had to take off front mud flaps and trim the hunk of plastic in the front of the fender.

    I still rub a little in reverse and hard turning over bumps.

    Good luck!
