From what I have found in my build I am thinking that running 40's at your highest travel position will require quite a bit of fender trim. A lot more than I did. Might want to throw a fender on and at least measure before finalizing bumps and shock hoops. Am setting my hoops up to pretty much bottom out shocks at full bump with tires not hitting, axle flat or articulated. I see no reason to leave shock travel unavailable.
Yes I plan to trim a lot off the fenders. Probably fallow the factory arch and take 4 inches off if needed Im also willing to narrow the front clip at the radiator support a few inches on each side. My goal is to keep the truck as low as possible to allow full wheel travel with 40s.
