are you talking about inner fenders for tire clearance? if thats what your talking about here is a pic i took when i trimmed my fire wall so can roll 2 inches of the groung on level roads not the best shot of he inner fenders but it will give you an idea.... im gonna be installing the trailer fenders next....

yeah i used my cutting wheel.... are you currently bagging or body dropping yours?....

iceship 10-23-2011 11:07 PM

Re: Lets see some before and after pics
 
I dropped it.... then I put 24s on it. 4.5 drop in front .....
Inner fenders are out..... but rubs in that inside of the outter fender, so that has to be shaved....... may or maynot bag it...

no they dont rub at all... the tire doesnt hit anything not even the fire wall now that i trimmed it... im gonna be able to drive this thing 2 inches of the ground once im done with it of course thats on level roads like the freeway since i wont be making severe turns.... now on the city im gonna have to raise the front up just enough to clear the front tire.....yeah their 22s....

iceship 10-25-2011 06:09 PM

Re: Lets see some before and after pics
 
24s here..my offset msut be to big.. what size tires are u running.... just put my stock springs back on... set kind of high now.

luifer76 10-25-2011 06:54 PM

Re: Lets see some before and after pics
 
im running 265/35/22's

iceship 10-25-2011 10:02 PM

Re: Lets see some before and after pics
 
I would have to run 275/25/24 in front, for me to run a 4.5 drop in front... I put my stock coils back on today... I looked at a height chart 265/35/22 is just .5 shorter than 275/25/24
