Do you have rocker brawlers by Posion spyder installed also? If so did it require any additional work to fit the XRC's?

My pass rear has a corner gap at the top front edge. The rears didn't fit well at all. Had to tweak mine to fit them close.

Tip: I took a tube of ultra black rvt and sealed the front and top of the rears to the tub and made it look nice, then truck bed lined above the fenders and the rvt beads. Turned out amazing. If I remember ill snap a pic.

I finally had a chance to flex out the Jeep and have some rubbing in the back with 35" MTR's and only a 1.25" body lift. Looks like , so I either need to add the .75" coil spacers or bump stop. Didn't really want to do either, but looks like I need to pick the worse of two evils.
