Do not cut the rear rubber :nono: Obviously your front is lower than your rear so just get some longer grade 8 bolts and when you remove your rear bolts to put the new longer bolts on keep the stock bushings :yesnod: Hope this helps

at the present time it looks like the distance between my rear tires and lip fender is higher by 1" than the front height. my goal is to make it even all around.

Rob,
I could be a little confused here. What's new?
It sounds like you have not adjusted the rear spring bolts down yet.
Loosen them until you have about 2 threads showing. That will get you close to even with the front.
Others are correct. Never, never cut the rear bushings. Only cut the front if necessary.
