You guys are making me think about this some more. I looked hard at the rear end placement and these big fat tires seem to fit differently than the puny rollers I had on before. I had the rod ends on the 4 link bars screwed out a ways and for some reason (my malfunction) it seemed good. Now they are screwed in tight and the wheels are about 1-1/4" back from centering under the two holes.
I will check and see how much I can trim off the bars and still have threads - or if I can tap them in further. This will pull the wheels up into a better position. Then I'll see what it all looks like. I will also have to look at how the coil overs fit and maybe add a spacer to keep them lined up correctly.
I pulled the bed back off and may also tighten up the fender lips with a BFH.
Thanks for helping me think through this!!
