Yes exactly. I cut the metal in the rear as far as I was willing to go (1-5-2” into the quarter panel). I think the more important reason is just setting the bumpstop height in accordance to the length of your shock. If you have a longer shock you’ll likely need a bumpstop extension so you don’t blow them out
I pretty much cut it as far as I’m willing to go. If you DM me on Instagram I can send you a pic and it’s easier to show you but I cut it right up to the door edge. If I go any farther I think it would start falling apart with the method I used haha
@@SnowboundCustoms have you put the body lift on yet? If so how'd you end up dealing with the gap on the bumpers and sliders? I wanna get a 1in body lift too but I already have all my armor for no body lift lol
@@tanneremery4134 yes I did actually. Since I have a front tube bumper that already sat a bit above the bottom of the flares, the front bumper looks just fine. I just installed a rear bumper meant to accommodate for the 1” bodylift and I have taken off the sliders to move them up an inch
@@SnowboundCustoms cool I have the same front bumper so that's good to hear. I was hoping there's another solution for the sliders since mine are welded on 😂 did the body lift solve all the rubbing issues?
Your front doesn't look like it flexes much, what gears are you running in the axles? looks cool though
im assuming you're rubbing frame at full steering lock? I get a tiny bit of rub with 35's
Yup I am
Answer is cut the metal not limiting uptravel and body lift

Why not just keep cutting another 1/2” to avoid the body lift altogether?

Also I ended up deciding to buy a 1” bodylift instead in case 1/2” isn’t enough!
