[QUOTE="Jerry Gerner 2, post: 938492, member: 67360"] Ok, the bolt needs to stay unless you knotch that whole seem and weld in a flat piece of steel. I have the same rubbing issue on mine because I put 1.5" spacers on the front and back (didn't want to go wider and put too much stress on seals/ bearings). I took a 3lb. hammer and folded in the tab where the bolt is. I'd take the spacers off, turn the wheels to see how much space you have to play with. Take a floor jack put it under the tire at turn and lift it to see how much room is left. I'd get 1"-1.25" spacers for the front of mine but don't have the money right now. [/QUOTE]
