From what im understanding here, with the 31's you rub the top of the fenders. From what i gather about your lift you have cranked up the t-bars and have shackles, effectly getting about 1.5"-2" of lift. Ok, makes sense. With just those items you will rub at the top of the fenders on large bumps. Reason being is that the suspension still has the stock travel so it can go all the way up to the factory bump stop which puts your larger 31" tire at the top of the fender. I experienced thisand so have others so itskind of a common thing.Fix for this is get a body lift for more clearance or get some larger bump stops.....or both.
