    So I'm getting bilsteins 5100's all around. The front will be set at 2.5 inches

    The rims I'm getting are 16x9's, 4.52 backspacing and -12mm offset. I'll be putting 285/75/16 dura tracks on the rims.

    I know they're going to rub, and I'm not worried about dealing with that

    I was wondering if anyone has pictures of the same setup as what I am getting, where it rubbed, how you fixed it, and any details I need so that I can know exactly what to do and not destroy my truck

    I rubbed on the front air dam in the front wheel well. Usually only in reverse though. Billies @2.5", stock Sport springs and 285/75/16 KM2's. I don't wheel this truck, if you do you will most likely have some rubbing issues.

    So just trimming plastic then? Nothing crazy?

    I live in a town with crappy roads, so I know I'll rub going in and out of shopping centers and stuff... But have you had any issues with the cab mount?

    No trimming, only removing the two air dams in the front of the front wheel well. Two 10mm bolts per side. I haven't removed the mud flaps or trimmed them, so no CMC for me. Keep in mind that every truck is different and you could have conflicting results. There are some pictures in my gallery showing stock cab mount and UCA clearance.
