    I'm actually thinking of swapping mine to the way that Energy Suspension recommends installing, washer on both outsides, small bushing on top, big bushing on bottom.

    Yep, thanks for reminding me to put mine into that configuration

    Just flipped, had to put an image of some awesome tires :D

    And a close up of how they sit now, I've had these in 3 different configurations now but this is what's recommended by energy suspension.

    @Joshp767 (RCI Metalworks) Diff skid went on this weekend, great product at an amazing price. If you are in the market hit them up directly or contact @ToyTec Lifts to purchase.

    its been a while since i posted about cutting my fenders on the lower front but here is some more images since people keep asking about it and rubbing problems

    here is a straight on image of my cut job, its tough to see because you really are only taking the bottom inward so it almost looks like the stock fender lines

    straight on from the side



    looking in to the fender liner, CMC is just visible behind tire on the left



    close up of the fender plastic trim, CMC isn't visible as its behind the tire



    blue is what the original shape kinda looked like, it comes forward towards the tire quite a bit, i was rubbing in the same spot as the OP, not anymore since cutting the red line
