Thanks man! So no rubbing at the inner fender?? Do you know the offset of your wheels?
same off set as yours. I had to trim the plastic on the rear of the wheel well also. nothing major. I had a little front rub while turning at speed, but after I got my 2inch hell bent spacer, no rub at all.
See I don't think I can run a simple spacer on top of the McGaughys lift!!! Thanks man!
did your lift use the factory shock with a 6 inch spacer? If so, I would not recommend trying to put another spacer on top. My BDS lift came with new front shocks.
I tried putting 5100s on with my McGaughys lift and it won't work. Either will a spacer. It will make the UCA rub on the spring/ strut pocket. I tried it on all setting with no success.
I just dont understand that. Was it contacting when sitting, or only when you pull ALL the weight off the tires and it is at full droop, tires in the air?
DMB, can you get me a picture of the UCA as it sits? like turn the wheels max to the right and shoot a picture of the UCA, spacer, part of the shock on the drivers side?

With a factory control arm on a 6 inch lift with coil overs set to around 2 inches (So around 8 inches of lift) we are no where close to hitting the strut pocket. Id like to figure this out, maybe Mcguaghys changes some angles here. We always hear you could add to a mcguaghys lift. Here is a pic of ours from the parking lot 5 minutes ago.

Did you notice a big difference when you added the coilovers and add a leaf?
Such as road manners, off road performance, etc...
Ride quality is like stock height with coil overs. I would say its like stock, but its better than stock. I haven't done too much off roading with the truck since the set up was installed.
