rear is rubbing.

You can use a 1/4 inch spacer with et lugs in the rear that will push the tire out 1/4 inch should clear.

the metal braket you can tap in also to give you clearance there. Usually with full rear drop the wheels get sucked in to the front of the truck.

Are you using the 1 inch spacers or just the drop spring by itself/?

clearly you are rubbing on the bolt/frame for the trailing arm. you can see where you polished the shit out of the metal with your tire!!! this a common problem with these trucks, you need to get and adjustable panhard bar to put that tire back out to stock location! spohn sells them or you can have them made either one..

i cant see anything on my phone.

I do recall he said both sides are rubbing thats why a panhard bar wont work. You will need to move the axle back.

yea im sure hes rubbing plastic on both sides.. need to trim that for sure but i doubt hes rubbing metal on passenger.. if so then yea i would get the trailing arm re-locators.. but i would assume its just rubbing metal on the driver side

I ended up getting 1in spacers and now im in the clear. I remember a friend telling me something about a panhard bar but I wasn't sure if it would work since both sides were rubbing on the bolts.

yeah both sides rubbing i knew i read that. thats why panhard bar wont work. If the rear is dropped all the way you will need to get the djm hardware kit with trailing arm relocators and swaybar relocators.

But if your happy with a 1 inch spacer roll with it. You will notice the rear tires looked sucked forward now. If you decide to fix it you can go with the spohn upper/lower adjustable arms here

When I hit dips the back seems to be hitting on something. Like a loud thump any ideas?

Look up the free travel mod, you are probably hitting the frame bump stops.
