Front tires rub 31 bfg

Is there anything in the meanwhile I can do till my custom spindles are ready I have a 91 pickup 2wd and 31 inch bfg and fabtech upper control arms and I've pretty much grinded everything I cud off but I still have torsion cranked all the way to bump stops, anything cheap I can do for a little more down travel

any good kit will include front bumper lift brackets... rear bumper will be up to you, not a big deal tho...

go up to 3", all you need is some gap gaurds for under the bed. Paint the sides of your frame a nice black so it blends in better
