For those with 11" rear wheels
Had a really loud noise a couple of times on the way home the other day from the right rear. Pulled the wheel off and found that it had rubbed on the bump stop brace just enough to scrape the paint off. No damage to the wheel but my rear end had migrated to the driver side about 1/8" and caused the rubbing. It would be wise to make sure your rear end is centered under the chassis so you don't experience the same thing. I hadn't thought about it in a long time and wish I'd checked it more often. Just an FYI.

Offsets are +59. I haven't removed the carpet or the shock boot yet, but it will probably come out during the watts install. +59 is good. I was worried I just had a really tight fit, but all the room was on the driver side.
