Tire hitting inner fender
 
Hey guys I just lowered my truck 6 inches up front and the back as well and it looks like I only have about 2 inches until my tire hits the inner fender. Is there anything I can do to maybe raise the inner fender or get more clearance? Lemme know

Slosh tubs? Remove the inner fender. Run trailer fenders. etc

IMHO, if you want the best look, hit up Mike Losh, owner of Slosh Tubz. On here his name is 67shelby
