I've got a 1991 B2200 2WD bagged with stock 14" wheels and the skinniest tires that I can find for my application. When I drop the rear to park or when I drop to drag, the tires rub the inside of the outer panel of the bed. I know I can put a narrowed rear end in it or put 4X4 bed on it, but I was looking for a little less expensive mod that I could do myself. Any suggestions?

Well , i grabbed the bed side at the wheel arch and pulled real hard to sorta bow it out a bit on mine to get the clearance i needed . LOL . I still have to do some trimming and reinforcing in mine so it'll stay out and not move back in when i lean on it . LOL .
Of course i drag my tag .

find some z71's or gmc yukon wheels with low pro tires... other than that...4x4 bed or a rearend out of the older bodystyle mazda/courier will work. dont just grab the bedsides and pull because if you *** it up really bad you will be worse off. later bro.

they make a fender well roller but most people use a baseball bat of a pipe just set it on top of the tire and roll the truck forward while putting just a little pressure the the fender well...little by little it will "flare" the bed side

you got to change your off set of your rims to a +15 or higher, what i did is went with the 4x4 bed and fender combo and i had to roll the inside lip works great, pissed the DOT off though!
