Still need to use a belt sander to make it perfectly straight.. It was a free mod to fit the 255s with just a 1.75 front lift and no rubbing even under flex now. so im happy for now until i can do front and rear bumpers

I do not, sorry. I got rid of the truck about a year ago and have no pictures on my phone. From the side it looked off. By that I mean the lines from the rear and front didnt match. The front bumper looked much higher than the fat, low rear bumper. As far as approach angle goes and tire clearance, worth all my time and Id do it again as a money saver.

I also did the Tman chop.
I didn't do the upward cut in the fenderwell, just kept my cut level with the ground and went straight back to the front tires. I've run the Tman chop for a while now and I love it.

I am so doing this mod. The 03 bumper has the lines built in just wondering what to use to cut with. I'm thinking 22 dpi. Blade on jigsaw

I like this idea for some more clearance.
Does anyone have any pictures of the inner fender liner? What are you guys doing with that?
