Did you replace ur bars after installing ur lift? How do you like the lift? I love his stance with those spacers. I had to use a porta-power to "bend" mine but I still rub on 7/8 turn lock. I guess my tires are a bit larger than a traditional 35 too though, I think they come to like 34.8x13.2 or something.

Yeah - I've been through all the options on this truck. I was running 275/65s with spacers and it rubbed the crash bars all the way to shiny metal on the passenger side.
I was able to get a nice credit on the 275/65 tires so, I took the spacers off and tried a 35x12.5 nitto, but it rubbed the UCAs pretty bad. I knew the spacers would get it off the uca but also, the crash bars would have to go.
I cut the crash bars off, front and back AND had just a little bit of cutting on the wheel well liner on the back side of the well. I probably could of jacked the coilovers up to clear and avoid the trimming, but I like the little bit of rake.

I really like this setup. I am about to install my lift and buy wheels (22x10 or 22x11) with the same size tires. Whats the offset and backspacing on your mavericks?
I think I am going a 22x11 with 5.06 backspacing and -24 offset with 35x12.50x22 tires. Do you for see any issues with that setup? I understand I will have to cut crash bar and trim a little bit of plastic
