Just a question, is the glass going to move the wheel opening to center it to the tire?

Yup correct, the rear glass will be centered over the new wheel location. But I am not doing your standard bedside glass you see on SUV builds. Will be modifying bedsides to look more like the bronco raptor glass and not cover the whole rear door.

Update on the build:
-Top of cage and rockers tube are full welded and pillars are ready to be tacked.
-Stepped up to monster 40” nittos so some more trimming will need to be done
- Rear pivots are all welded and body will go back on for last time.
- rear aluminum links are cut and ready to install
-Rear axle brackets are located and ready to be fully welded.
-Upright is going to send cut send, then I can build the upper J-arm, make the CO and bypass mount. Plan to build the mounts into the engine cage vs welding it on the frame.
After that she will be a roller, which I can’t wait to see. She is sitting roughly at ride height right now. With 40s the rear has 13” of up-travel.
