I plan to do some light trimming, and take off the bumper end caps, and see from there how much more i need trimmed, and also plan to put some wheel spacers.

I was also thinking of taking the door molding off and rolling on some bedliner on the bottom.. what do you all think of that?

Lift looks great. Looking forward to seeing the new wheels and tires on it. I would wait for the tires before doing the end caps and any trimming. Go ahead with the bedliner.

With those tires on the stock wheels, you're probably going to rub on the lower control arms at full lock. A simple and very very cheap way to fix this it to throw a couple of washers behind each steering stop (saw it as a write up on another site). Cost you just a few pennies and will stop the rubbing until you eventually get some new wheels. I've been using the washers behind mine for over a year and everything's working just fine

Lift looks great! You'll be very happy with your RE products!

I already am very happy, but with little money i did go with AAL's and am already regretting it, but hopefully come spring it will be time for some full packs.
Also i plan to get some wheel spacers to fix the rubbing issue, i would have already ordered them but have heard they strip out very easily so im gonna have to figure out what i'm gonna do.

I got the tires on yesterday and they look bada**
Also since i thought the back looked a little low, i got a set of teraflex 1.5" shackles and put those on today.

What do you think needs to be done next?
