doesnt bother me too much but prolly in the future i'll get the brackets to line up the bumper

Another Cheesehead! All right!

if you don't move the rear bumper up there isnt a gap between the hitch and bumper...just between the bumper and body then

I hate gaps reguardless, when/if I do another one I'm moving everything, hitch and all. On my 91 I never relocated the back bumper because my tailpipes came straight out the back and my bumper was warped from being towed out with it.

Thats what I wanted to see. I have 35's I wanna run also unless I snag some 36's before. Whichever will clear the best without rubbing.

8" wide wheels?

 

[SlimT]

I'm pretty sure they are but not positive. They have 3.62 inch backspaceing also and they do rub but if I trimmed my bumper they probably wouldn't.

my god why would you want to cut up your truck to run a 35? why not just run a 33 with BL? it looks and clears way better. also i would def lift the bumper with the body. when i see a truck with a BL and a bumper hanging down it just looks like **** IMO. i would do the BL lift the bumpers and take your hitch recever off and make new brackets for it so it looks right. also get the gap gaurds for the wheel wells that makes a big difference. you can look at my truck buildup in the off road threads 97 rcsb soon to be sas i belive its called. but in my opinion i wouldnt run 35s with just a 3 inch body they will rub with flex belive me.
