NEED HELP! Ground Force 9856 Lowering Kit Install

[07 Tahoe]

I just got the Ground Force 9856 Lowering Kit installed. I have 26's with 305/30/26 tires. I am having some major rubbing on the back side during a turn, does anyone have this kit and have the same issues. I was told they cannot cut the fender well because it backs up to the metal.

Is there another Kit I can go with to keep the 6's with no rub? I would hate to have the kit removed or go back to 24's just so I can keep it lowered.

Any help would be much appreciated.

you can hit the metal with a hammer and push it almost a half inch back

Lol I feel like you come in all these threads telling everyone to beat their trucks.

It is still at the shop, they will need to pull the funder wells out and then go to work with the hammer, just in that area right?

yes, just pull back the plastic and smash with hammer.

It'll move back just fine.

just called they are saying I need more then a Half inch of room....I would probably be fine except for making u turns and backing out of my driveway which is in the back and I have to crank it to get into the alley. May just have to tough this one out.

What's going on? What type of fender mod are you doing so there is no rubbing? I have trimmed plastic and everything to get these wheels to work but still rubs.

He also likes to flip the upper rear shock bolts because these wide tall tires do rub on it. I think probably during turns but I've seen it on mine so you could start there.

I have to take it back in in a couple of weeks for the recheck and for them to make sure everything is still tight. I will have them flip the bolts around for me.

Thanks for that, I saw the bolts after cutting more plastic out.

Off topic, did you have any trouble with the Traction Control light during low speed turns after your drop?

Mcgaughys spindles do that on 07s
