In other words modify the rear overhang as well? Yet another idea add to the mix. I already think the rear stock overhang is a bit much. My idea would have made it worse. The good news is that the rear pieces that cap the end of the bed are a bit loose from all the 4WD the original owners had and would be easily removed. May be challenged by the tip of the bullet on the side of the bed. It is almost to the leading edge of the bed. Maybe a combo of shorting the rear overhang and moving the wheel opening slightly. Hmmmmm. I will take a look at this in the morning. Thanks for the input. Dug
