hi all,i have recently instaled all 4 5100s and new springs on a 06 4runner sport v8 .

i lifted the front to the highest,installed 1.5 inch spacers all around and the tires rub the inner part of a fender !!!

the is not a lot of rubbing but i hate the scary sound when i back up and need to turn the wheels!!!

what do you guys usually do to get rid of rubbing,if ill ned to cut something i will but id rather not to if there is a possibility!!

thanks a lot

See my photos I posted under "MarkinWMich".

You will likely have rubbing on the inside of the mud flap. I just pulled it back with some wire. Others have used heat guns and molded the plastic back. Others ended up removing them altogether.

You may also have some rubbing on the outside of the front fender/bumper cover. Using a rotary cutting tool, you can do a little trim, then move the plastic inner fender forward a bit. Easy and quick and no one is going to notice it but you.

Rubbing

Just remove the front mudflaps and hold onto them for resale and the front inner liners just unbolt the three bottom screws don't cut no need.. And push the liner about 1 1/2 forward and tap with the same bolts you removed.
No cutting,no heating,no tieing and can all be put back to original later.
I can take pics of mine if needed to show you.
