dellstopjeep said:shannon, thats exactly what i want to do with my stock fenders, do u have a write up on how u did that or can u just tell me the steps to that??? I trimmed my front fender by the bumper guard so front 33's didnt rub i was borrowing from a friend. I used a sawzall and then smoothed it out witha grinder... but it still didnt turn out as good as i hoped.
mission-inc said:Shanbo44, I like your flair set up alot. How did you get the stock flairs back on after you trimmed the fenders, it looks asthough you cut the stock holes out...
Any write up? I'm interested in learning more
mission-inc said:The self tapping bolt goes into the flair from the inside of the fender or visa versa? I don't really care about looks, but for some reason that looks good. Great job on it! :cheers:

dellstopjeep said:it is partially for looks, but yours looks damn good!!!
for street rub... i rub on the front and rear of the front fenders. i cut the front and theres no rub, but when swaybars are disconnected and im wheelin it will rub like no other still. (the rear of the fenders rub at and a little before a full steering lock). the rears dont rub obviously but they will to when wheelin. sawzall will do the trick it just isnt a straight cut and looks like crap. but if i re attach the flares with just the plastic and cut out half of the rear to mount the rear flare on the door it will cover it up.
what did u do for the rear pinch seam thats welded? If i cut threw that whats a good idea for filling the whole?
sorry for stealing the thread!!!
Ah, I see. I'm new to web pics and stuff. OK, so, here it is. Click on fenders. Mine is a '89 with 32's on 4.5'' of lift.sportsguy said:That link won't let me in...I think you need to use a different link for us to be able to access your albums.
