I just put on my AE589's w/ 32x11.5x15 on my 00 4X4 Dak, The tires rub bad on plastic under bumper with torsion bars cranked pretty good. My buddy has an F250 and has the bumper out about 1-2" with steel blocks, looking at the Dak, it can possibly be done. Anyone tried that? Body lift will have to wait for a few paydays now. Any help appreciated, do not want to cut. Also NO rubbing on frame! Thanks again.

No bumper covers on 2000's. That started on 01's.
Travis, no way to move the bumper forward. Only way to run 32's on 2000 trucks with no lift and no rubbing is to use the factory 7 inch rims instead of the 8's.

Check out my sight, I added some pics of the bumper out about 1.5-2" They do not rub in front no more. I also have some black rubber matting to put between bumper and radiator wall to take care of gap and make look prettier. Thanks for info, let me know any other ideas to make look better.
