Rubbing. Help!

Alright, tried this on all the FB groups, and no doubt it’s already in here somewhere. But enough is enough.

21 OR, manual, 3” Fabtech lift and rear AAL, CMC already done… 33/12.5/17, -24 offset (yeah I know).

Rubs bad, sometimes with barely any flex. Worse on the right side but bad on both.

Two things: what else can I do? Body mount relocation and SPC UCAs are in the works. Allegedly that will solve the problem. But also, how in the hell is anyone getting 35s on their trucks at all?! And will a relocation and UCAs allow for 35/12.5/17 -24?

HELP!

 

Way too much poke. The more poke, the more trimming is needed. You don't need help, you just chose wrong.

 

You need a better alignment. The new UCA's will help move the wheel forward to a 4 on caster.

 

I can vouch for the SPC UCA’s, tons of adjustments with them, even enough for 35’s, currently I’m running some 295’s and there’s plenty of clearance now with those uppers with a good alignment and tech. If I’m not mistaken a lot of guys run the spc’s on 35’s. Hope this helps!

lol hey at least you went with a true 33x12.50 so kudos... most guys settle for a 285-75/70. With what you have planned that should be enough for 33's. May still have to do some minor cutting of the fender trim towards the cab mount. I am on 35x12.5x17 and I have a CMR from alpine designs and icon tubular UCA's so my adjustment is nothing like the SPC's but I didn't personally want UCA's with a balljoint. 35's require more cutting. My fenders are trimmed 2.5" all the way around and I have the firewall pushed back as far as I can with a big hammer. I still rub the firewall when the tire is stuffed and turned so I am going to tub it out at some point. You may not have to with SPC's though. Funny my right side also rubs more as well.
