Do you have a close up or the bedliner paint, I'm wanting to see the texture
that looks super nice. What is your measured lift and how much do you rub flexing? Also. What size tires on those rims to equal 32”? Do they rub on the control arms at full lock?
So many questions....
Had my friend install my lift today
3 in zone full leaf lift
31 k02s
Only problem is my tires hitting my LCA at almost full lock. Was thinking about ordering some RC LCAs or some WJ LCAs. Do you think that'll fix the rubbing issue?

Yep. You'll still rub with aftermarket control arms. The problem is how close your factory wheels are to the knuckle and suspension. You can adjust your steering so lock happens earlier, hopefully stopping the wheels from reaching the control arms, or you can run wheel spacers or aftermarket wheels.
More specifically: Old Man Emu 930 coils in the front with Rusty's adjustable track bar and Tomken end links/disconnects, and Rancho 1.5" leaf springs in the back with Iron Rock Offroad adjustable shackles at the 0" setting (stock height). Old Man Emu sport shocks all the way around. 235/75/15 Yokohama Geolander A/T G015s on 15x7 Pro Comp steel wheels with 4.5" backspacing.

Here is mine stock with 30x9.50R15 Cooper Discoverer A/T 3's. Yes, it does rub the lower control arm on a complete full lock by maybe 1/4" to 1/2" (but I think only to the left). But how often do I lock all the way......can't remember if I ever really had to. And I plan on doing a 1.5" - 2" lift in 1-3 months (unless things happen). I also plan on changing those rims that the tires came on to some turbines.
Was wondering if your aware that a lift won't eliminate the tires hitting the LCA's? The backspacing of the rims will. Stock rims are 5.25"BS. You may want to check the BS on the Turbines. BUT for the little bit your hitting you could adjust the stops on the steering knuckles.

Yes, I was aware of that. I may get some .5" to 1" wheel spacers when I get the turbines. Or like you said just adjust the steer stop.
Today I put in full lock to the right backing out of a parking space (on purpose) and it didn't rub so it is only doing it when in full lock to the left. Don't know why only one side. Will do some research.

Thank you for making sure I knew that though.
They don't make that small of a spacer unless you replace the studs and use those sketchy looking spacer plates. Best to just get a good set of hubcentric 1.25" spacers and be done. That's what I did with Turbines and they looked great

Got any pictures?
I just don't want them coming out past the fender flares. Anything up to being even is fine.

Even better yet, get wheels with the backspacing you need/want. I got my procomp steel wheels for $50 each.
