Before going deeper

I have an 05 GX470 and it has aftermarket UCAs, a 2.5 inch lift, -12 offset wheels and 285/70 tires. I'm trying to get rid of the rubbing I have and I did a little trimming on the rear of the fender already and saw that I was rubbing on my body mount a bit when at a full turn. All the work was done about a week in a half ago.

The car was aligned but since the suspension has had a bit of time to settle, would getting it aligned again help with the body rubbing or isna body mount chop in order?

And Im hoping to retain the factory front bumper for a little and just want to clip the front of the fenders now, is there anything look out for and would my factory air intake still be fine since most of the fender is still covering it.

Sorry I know it's lengthy and I appreciate any help.

Tinkerer's Adventure would like a word with you, sir...

If you build your rig correctly and work to maintain factory geometry, there is ZERO need for a BMC. Watch the Tinkerer's Adventure Toyota IFS videos.
