Thanks - Yea there was a fair amount of trimming, and I still rub at lock and full compress. Overall though 35's kill on these trucks - so much more capable, even over 33s. Highly recommended.
As far as gearing goes, I started with 4.10s but now I'm running 4.30s. Both still have lots of low end but I would like to move to a 5.29 at some point (I rarely highway drive). Dual tcases would be the best, though a bit more work to get installed.
PS. I happen to have my old 35's for sale.. if you're looking ;)
The caps I used had holes in them with a nut welded on the back. I don't think it would serve much of a purpose if you weren't bolting to the end caps. I found that made it easier to mount the bumper as well as you could pull the brackets on with the end bolt.
Still running the mud grapplers but I have my old km2s that I'm not using. You can see them in post #11 of this thread

Not sure, I would guess around 3/16 - they came with the bumper.

Any chance you want to make two of those rear bumpers? :)
