I trimmed/lifted and still rub at full lock.  10.5s are prettttyyyy big. 4'' of backspace will cause you to rub more than me.  or you'll have to trim more than me. < Message edited by WolfPack -- 4/1/2008 1:39:35 PM > _____________________________ 2000 Blazer 4d LS 4x4 - 265/70/15 General Grabber AT2s - Hunter Brush Guard - Surco Roof Rack with IPF 868s - 1.5'' Shackle + Tbar - 2'' BL (in reply to jphayes921) Post #: 5
