When you lower the bed down there is going to be a much larger gap behind the wheel/tire than whats in front of it from a visual perspective.

Kim: Will take this into consideration when Jim comes over and we do more precise measuring and bed loading. Just to get the front gap similar to the front gap on the front tire, I will need to move the wheel back at least a little bit more so, we are headed that way.

Just got some input from my friend Kevin down in Florida. He is a Jeep Wrangler guy. He suggested I look at extending the trailing arms which includes drive-shaft and possibly brake lines. Hmmmmm. Will put in on the list for consideration.
