Put the Bushwackers on. I know it looks goofy with the flares and no lift, but i'm moving and don't feel like lugging a huge box around with me..

The fronts went up with out much fuss so i didn't post the working pictures of them. However, when I started on the rears, it became a little more dicey trying to avoid the weld seams with the grinder so I decided to cut it into tabs and hammer it under. For those of you doing this install, this is by far a better way. Trust me.
Pics came out mixed up... Sorry

Got some wheels to help with LCA rub. It looks better and it fixed the rubbing, however the tires are still making contact with the flares. Will post pics of the wheels..
