Thanks a lot guys! Just an update: I have found some rubbing issues. It only happens while I am in an "off-camber" situation and am fully cranked so my truck turn left (moving forward). The passenger side tire would grab and rub not only the plastic (crap) valance, but its actually hitting the chrome bumper itself. I am gunna do some trimming but any ideas on what I could do for the sharp edge? I was thinking rhino line the bumper?

There goes the rubbing issue:

Look and see how the bumper mounts. I know on my truck and SD's, you can stack a few washers to shim the bumper forward.

Truck look's great! Got to get the sharp edges smoothed out without causing any damage to the chrome on the bumper. Are the wheels the correct specs from the lift fabricator and are you re-gearing to spin the larger wheels and tires?
