I have a 1" body and 2" BB, I cut the rear pinch seam to the welds and pulled the inner fenders. Thats it and Im rubbing a little in the rear, it cuts into the tread a little.
Im glad I installed a 3/16 skid in place of the stock one, its got real deep scrapes all over it... thats why its there, but it does high center.
This is compared to a stock Rubi,

As for the bumper, I cut about 5" off the frame, it made no sense to have a frame past the body, So I cut the frame off and put in a new crossmember. The spare tire sits right at the tailgate...
Back to the pinch seam, someone here said not to cut it off, why not? As I see it, the body is secure enough to cut one at a time and plate the wheelwell, or am I missing something?

As for trimming, I would say more than likely... I know I am still rubbing and I trimmed the pinch seams to the welds. It cuts into the tread of my 37's but not into the 35's I run in the winter
Heres a couple with 37's
I dont have any with the rear flexing, but Im headed out Sat Ill see if I can geta couple from the rear...
