Looks good IMO!
I rode my motorcycle next to it for about 15 miles yesterday and I FULLY AGREE with you...

it looks really good now - just need to wait til the machine shop opens back up so I can get the 1.25" rear wheel spacers to push the wheels out a little more to match the front...

Yeah, the Maxtrac Spindle pushed the wheels out an inch, but when they measured the front tires from the outer edge of the driver side tire to the outer edge of the passenger side tire, it was 2.5 total inches wider than the rear...

so, we will split the difference and just use 1.25" spacers on each side

Don’t really post on here but I had a question for anyone here that’s stretched the front end. I have a 2017 ram 1500 2wd 7” maxtrac, 1.5 BL and recently stacked a 1.5” spacer in the front and replaced the maxtrac 1.5” with a 3” spacer in the rear. Issue now is that the UCA is now hitting the shock tower only on the passenger side. Any way to fix this besides removing the spacer?F9233EE5-4754-4372-AFC8-751D3CDB9F36.jpeg

Second how much touching are we talking? Could you shave the rub area a touch?

Besides the rubbing how's the handling? Rough ride, stiff, how are your uca angles and all others for that matter?
