yes, they just rubbed a little on the inside of the wheel well...the plastic only. he took a cutting disk and cut off the spot where it rubbed and it fixed the problem, and the cut was hardly noticable

Hey there everyone. I am new here... but I have a 2000 SLT 4x4 with no lift on it yet and I am running 285/75/16 BF Goodrich A/T's on it. They rubbed a little on the inner plastic of the front wheel wells. I trimmed off a little of the plastic inside and no there is no rubbing unless I am backing up fast and on a very bumpy road. Am doing a AAL on it along with cranking the TB's

Just a heads up, and not to be a downer but a T/S lift will not properly fit a 33" tire on the front of our D's. The tire may fit on a foreward stance with the wheels straight but under compression (bumps/In turns etc) the tire will not only rub against the plastics but also deep enough to reach the fenders sheet metal... I'd highly suggest a smaller tire or a body lift... TRUST ME....
Here's a quick pic to show you the clearence of a 3"bdy on t/s with actuall 33" tires, i can still contact the fender under full compression ( and my fender and flare are 1 1/2"-2" cut back ).

Think I'll be following your lead when it's time for my new truck. Those 4X4 Ram 2500 Quad cab shorty's are catching up to me and when it does I'll be driving one!
