Thanks man
Yeah, front is rolled and pulled. Bumper tabs cut (all around), camber bolts and I've removed the fender liner. Wasn't necessary to remove the liner but it was looking pretty nasty already..still rubbing on hard turns and big bumps, but I don't mind it.
The rear is my problem...I'm still working at getting the rear down a tad more. Plenty of room to go down, but my bumper and fender are keeping me from doing it. I've rolled the fenders and been shaving away at my bumper. Still need to pull the fender a little more to eliminate rubbing (Been doing a little at a time with a heat gun & bat. taking it day by day and it's working good) Want to get it down about another 1/2 inch and I'll be happier. I've also done the washer trick in the back to add camber. Not sure on how much, but its not quite -3. It's perfect IMO. I rub only on big dips/bumps right now.
Might go with a 45 tire all around just to help with rubbing, but like I said, I don't mind it too much.
