    For 33s you dont need a BMC, you need to adjust your UCA and trim up front a little and you should be done. :plane:
    How much lift are you getting and what offset you getting the wheels?

    Can't help you with the BMC question, but I sure am curious what that contraption is under your rocker panel...

    @Pat23
    Welcome here

    I have 285/70’s on 9” wide 0 offset wheels, plus 1.25” spacers..so I luckily got a nice bmc done in a local guys home shop. There’s two types generally: bucked the end straight off like yours is marked for. Or, ripping the body mount lengthwise cutting off the inner face, like mine. And to finish you probably know a plate is welded over the cut area in both scenario.
    Goodluck

    @ChessGuy -12 on offset.

    @glwood54 lol a hot mess. Scrap outta my bone yard so kids can climb in and out better, they have short legs.

    1in Square tubing for steps. Something to hold over until I can work on rock slides.

    New set to come.
