Ok I am looking for pics of front fenders trimmed for more clearance. I am going to open mine up and reconstruct the wheelwells. I rub my 35"s at full stuff and hope to run 37"s.

I cut mine along the indent line from the flare.

I eliminated my fenders when I went to the front EXO for clearance, I like the look.

This was a stock 86 tin top. I swapped the sj410 clip just to keep people guessing what it was.

I plan to keep some kind of wheelwell or I would have just tubed the front out when I did the exo. I know I have seen pics of people doing a virtual lift and opening up the wheelwells but I cant find the pics anymore.

Probably not what you are looking for since you are running 37's and I only trimmed for 32's, but here is what I did. I cut the fender and remounted the flare 3" higher.

I can get more if you want. I ended up having to cut more out of the front corner.

I was thinking of something simmilar. After looking at mine closer I am going to have to trim back into the firewall or move the axle forward. The problem with that is if I go any further forward my steering linkage will bind so I need to move the box forward also. It looks like I might just roll the edges a little and stick with 35's for now.:shaking:
