Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
I agree that it's a backspace problem, height shouldn't have anything to do with that. lots of bagged trucks on 24's that lay frame and don't have clearance issues with the frame so having 22's shouldn't matter. get some cheap wheel spacers from Napa or something, prolly less than $20 and will prolly fix your rub.
