It's a done deal. I have a Roush/fox leveling kit and ended up cranking up the front shocks another 1/2 on the collar (did it right on the truck. Put spring compressors on the spring and lubed up the threads real good, adjusted 1/2") Front sat higher than the factory rear, so ordered a Autospring 3" block kit for the rear to get some rake back in it.
Now for the trimming. I ground some off the back/bottom/inside of the bumper, cut part of the front crash bars, trimmed some plastic and aluminum off the back part of the fender. Rear crash bars don't need to be touched, plenty of clearance there.
The front crash bars are there all the way across, just trimmed them top to bottom for 1/2 of the distance.
Only rubbing I get is in reverse on one side only. Will take a tad more off the back/bottom/inside of the bumper on that side. Was up at my cabin last weekend and didn't get any rub over any bumps while turning. Our road is 3/4 of a mile 2 rut (grass in middle) road.
