I've only got a couple of inches, I'll try to get some pics this weekend that show exactly how much. I hav e considered moving the boards forward a couple of inches for that reason, especially since they stop short of the front wheelwell. I'm also considering putting a mini-mudguard between the bottom of the fender and the top of the board right in front of the rear wheelwell so that less mudd gets thrown onto them...

Thanks man, I appreciate it
I've got 6" springs in the front, because the 4" ones de-arced themselves due to the weight of the winchbumper and the PSD. It seems to have evened out at about 4-5" in the front. We also put together a larger timbren pack to keep the fronts from flattening out again.
I've got a standard 4" lift in the back with an add-a-leaf and a 2' block. I'm gonna put ladder bars on it next month and probably re-gear it to 4.11 later this summer, too. I've got good power still with the banks big hoss bundle, but I need the gearing back to normal for towing. The 37"s have made it a little tall for towing.
The bumper gives me enough room to put the 37" tires on the truck. You're not supposed to be able to do that... I have a little rubbing on the leaf springs at full lock, but I keep my center of gravity down and have the clearance and traction I need in the woods.
I think the other X in the picture was a gas truck with a 6" lift all of the way around. So it is a little bit taller than mine. Post some more pics of your truck!
Take care,
