Have u tried running it without the spacer?  The spacer may be pushing it too far out.

I agree with this. I have the same size wheels without the spacer but slightly wider than average tires and they just barely fit, I still had to do some minor but unnoticeable trimming. I know if I added a spacer I’d have issues.

I’m no expert but my setup has a more aggressive offset and I barely rub at all at a full left turn only.

Also, what size tire are you running.  The AT4 has a smaller wheel weel opening than the Trail Boss so you cannot run as big of tires.

Yikes, looks like it already chewed up that corner quiet a bit. Looks like the tires are too big for that lift, or the wheels need more offset. Assume you took it to an off road shop... what did they suggest?

As an example, I installed a 6” BDS lift on my RST and used the wheel offset recommended by BDS. I have lots of room with 35x12.5x20 nitto grapplers

So it’s rubbing on the rear portion of the wheel well correct?

tire is a 35x12.5r22 toyo rt 

 

You need different rims/tires or some trimming.  There are 4 sizes listed on the Fabtech site for this lift.  Although it's not marked, the Trailboss is the one that fits the 35x12.5, the 295 width tire is for the AT4.  The wheel wells are smaller as I mentioned earlier.  The Fabtech kit also has a 5" backspacing which your 22x10 doesnt have.  The Rough Country kit accepts your rims offset but not this kit so in reality the best option for those looking to lift the Trailboss/AT4 is the Rough Country kit not the Fabtech one.

      Because that is IDIOTIC, much like this question. They've already been forced to do it by past administrations - why would you roll that back when it's a GOOD thing?  WHO IS ARGUING FOR LOWER MILEAGE???? 😂  NOBODY IS!!   I'm certainly not! What I want is RELIABLE vehicles again that are worth the price paid!    I don't get your logic here ...   In 2003 I paid $2,200 for our '86 Grand Marquis. It's STILL running and I've never been inside the engine, aside for the timing cover since it was leaking, so I threw a new timing set in since that makes sense. Transmission is ORIGINAL. Electric pump in the gas tank is ORIGINAL. Rear end is ORIGINAL. I'd have to hit my head REAL hard to want to pay $60k or more for a car that still can't come close to the comfort, seating and storage space, or reliability of this one. Nothing is even in the ball park! Hundreds of thousands of brands and models have been built and sent to the crusher while this one keeps on going!   https://postimg.cc/Z9XRrCSg   I've got a whole fleet of cars, motorcycles, and a truck close to this age for summer and winter. No one could pay me enough to buy anything built this century. I have zero use for any it.

      Since I'm the one who has to fix them when they break, I'll take vehicles over 30 years old all day, EVERY day, over ANY modern crap. Have you attempted any repairs on anything built after 2006? It's a friggin nightmare, and gets worse the newer the model year.    If I had the will or desire, I can make any car of any age outside of a Model T (I don't have THAT much will ...) just as powerful, comfortable, and have all the tech the new stuff does, and get pretty close in mileage, too. I prefer SIMPLICITY. The less the vehicle has, the less to fix WHEN it breaks, not IF.   I'm glad you snot-nosed punks don't like them. More for us, plus that keeps the prices from climbing more than they already have.👍

      Bringing this thread back on topic. I just noticed the incredible lack of bright chrome across the entire new lineup. Even the Denali has tinted the brightwork in the grille and has none elsewhere. None of them have chrome bumpers. As far as I can tell there aren't even chrome mirror caps. I'm curious if this also happens out back? Are there no chrome rear bumpers either? This is quite the departure for GMC.
