Thanks for the pictures, does the bed fit and not hit the tires or brake calipers?

Re: Rear end choices???

Here is a shot from the rear with it blocked with wood (Prior to 4-link) with bed on. The side shot is to show the 15x10 295/50R15 stick out about a 1 1/2" from the fender. Gonna have to widen them I have a shot looking down the inside with the bed on, ill post if i can find it.

thanks for the view. I think not having to use the spacers are because of the rims you used. But I will have to check that out.
