    yeah, and the TWs run big too. luckily that spindle lift you have keeps you off the cab mount and inner fenders pretty well. that extra width cause any issues for you?

    Im rubbing on the drivers side cab mount and out to the fiberglass in reverse with wheels cut left and in drive same direction...

    Rims are 4.3 BS and spindles are 3/4" wider... Thought about spidertrax but would only make it worse I think...

    ah, i thought the spindles added more width than that.

    wheel back spacing/track width seems to be the least exact part of fitting bigger tires. short of 2'' over or greater LT, you're gonna rub somewhere no matter what. just have to decide how easy the different rub areas are to remedy, and figure out what width will have it rubbing there.

    bottom line is....... :goingcrazy:

    the pinch weld seems to have been the easiest part of this whole thing. i'm still kissing the inner fenderwell a little under compression, but it's not the part with the pinch

    Not really, just showing that stuffing a 35 can be done.

    1", the difference in radii between a 37 and a 35 :D

    the caster only helps if it's the lower arm giving it to you. i have a ton of caster right now, but it's because the upper arm has the top of the spindle so far back. handles grreat, but sucks for clearance lol

    I just cut mine back some and then resealed it with body seal that we use on our garbage trucks. Holding up good i did all of my cutting with the tires still on it works well lol
