Re: Rear tire clearance
Thanks. Here's an old photo of when I finished widening the wheel tubs and was onto mocking up the wheel/tire combo for narrowing the rearend housing and figuring out how much I needed to trim the bedwood. You can see where the top of the inner bedside wheel opening would land on top of the tire (31" tall tire). I ended trimming up the top of the wheel opening to the outline of the unpainted area when I raised the bedfloor. I re-drilled the mounting holes in the inner bedside for the wheel tubs
