Looks great!

Gotta ask though:

1. What kind of clearance do you have from frame-to-ground in the middle?

2. Front tires rubbing on fenderwells on sharp dips?

3. What's your notch setup, and are you smacking it yet?

I ran into problems on #1 with my old white extended cab longbed, would drag a gas tank strap on sharp driveway transitions, since that hangs just barely below the frame. Also the heads of the transmission crossmember bolts were an issue a couple of times. Not a big deal, but I "noticed."

#2 was an issue on my current black '94 when it was about an inch lower in front, but they were springs someone else had cut, so that might have been part of the issue. I hate cut springs.

#3 with the BellTech bolt-in notch on mine and drop shackles, I was smacking the crap out of the bump stop in the notch - this is even with the bump stop plates cut off the axle housing. Remember I've got a 9.5" 14 bolt so the tubes are a little bigger than a 10 bolt; not sure if you kept your original axle or swapped a 10 bolt in there.

This is where it sat while I was having those issues. 255/45/20 (about 29.1") up front on the rubbing, wasn't severe, but enough to annoy me.

Looks great, love the wheels. I bet those look super cool rolling. Remind me of a somewhat inverted pattern Iroc wheel. What are they off of?
