LOL!! The front tires are 245 50 20 with BT static drop (spindles), it rubs pretty good, so just looking into ways to stop the rubbing. I have a build thread here if you ever feel like scanning thru on your "often free time" ..LOL!!!
... I believe I have been told that early models (73-79ish) have wider inners and might solve the issue????

P.S. agree mike is a super nice guy! while at the reunion show here in chandler I talked to him about the truck board and then my issue & he told me to take a set home get them installed & then just pay him the show fee in a few days!!! I kick myself for not taking him up on it!!!

... I have read in here..... "a poor man buys it twice!" aaaaannnnddd hhooowwww

At 29.7", that's a seriously tall tire for the front of a 1/2 ton 2wd truck; especially one that is lowered.
A 245/45 would yield a more friendly 28.6" or even better the common dropped truck size of 245/40 @ 27.7".
