2dr xj cut out help...

so i finally got around to installing my cut outs this weekend, got all the cutting done, and went to hold them up to the jeep and the front fit fine, but the rear makes it look as if i need to cut a whole lot more than it says. if anyone could offer suggestions and/or pix of the rear wheel well with them on that would be great. hopefully someone who has done this before because i am completely stumped... any help is appreciated. thanks.

Um, what the heck are ya talking about? Cut out fender flares?

Ya gotta give us some better info....... Brand name of what you're working with would be a good start......

I am pretty sure he is talking about Bushwackers since they call theirs cut out's. I don't know to much about the installation though.

sorry,
they are the bushwacker cut outs for a two door. and i do need help so any suggestions would be appreciated...

The rear flares won't sit as high as the front ones, simple because the rear doesn't flex as much as the front does. You could cut higher than it suggests, but then you would have to weld the wheel well back together with the outter sheet metal.
