Default half of 3" lift installed today

took me FOREVER, but it was easy and went fairly smoothly. i got the front done today. tomorrow i'll lift the back and add my new steering stabilizer. here's some pics...first one shows the difference after i did one side. other pic shows how the back looks a bit low now. i will let you know if the tires continue to rub, but it looks like there's a lot more room up there now.

sorry to hear that it hits and rubs still... Thats the same size of tire that i run on my truck right now and with my 3 and 3 lift It wont even come close to rubbing..... I had had 35 x 14.5 on there before, and so those wouldnt rub there was a little bit of cutting done to my bumper.

Where are they rubbing. Front, back or both. The lift kit, was it three inch spacers?

i dont know where it's rubbing, it only does it over bumps, and its pretty tough to see while i'm driving. and yes, the 3" lift was spacers 3" spacers in the front, and 1.5" blocks in the back. looks alot cooler at least
