I like that. How much did you cut off and what are the rivets holding on in the first pic?

Pictures show what was cut. The rivits are holding the inner and outer fender together after the lip was cut off.

I can see what was cut just not how much you guys cut off. Like an inch or so?

Just the return lips front and rear. Alse behind the rear doors continuing the contors just closer to the doors.

Huge thanks to Chad for the hands of this operation...I provided only the canvass. 35's aren't going to stuff unless cutting is done. I am certain of that now. I wish we would have taken pictures of the ramping/testing. I seem to always forget my camera.

I had originally figured I would be able to add bumpstop to make the 35's work by limiting compression. HA! I would have needed more than 4" of added bumpstop, and I already have the tera extensions. Speed bumps probably would have bottomed out the stops. This way the tires stuff, and if they catch the fender, it shouldn't yank the lip out and tweak the fender or tear the crap out of the tires.

I have to do something with the TR bumper or I can't turn while stuffed. Then I can pretty up the inner fenders and wait for GSW.

Thanks Chad.

David.

Man, I was thinking the same thing. You got me excited.. for THIS?

You're welcome David.

can I get a pic of the whole rig? Side shot if you could. That would be awesome. I always love seeing WJ's above 33" tires.
