Looking for advice on if I need to remove rear crash bar or modify for clearance or leave them alone . I have a 2.5 inch spacer lift with factory wheels added a 1.25 spacer 28570r17 nitto terra grappler G2 also I removed the front crash bars
The clearance now in back is approximately 1/2 inch is this enough clearance? Any advice please
Thx

If you can keep the crash bars in there as they are safety devices. The rear are most likely more important to say the least here. If anything loosen them and push them back.

That's a hell of a lot more than I had. I say keepem as-is. Did you need to remove the fronts? I feel like the fronts might have cleared for me, but the rears rubbed substantially.

The fronts might have cleared but I removed prior to installing the larger tires so not sure if the would have cleared
