Clad Trimming Revisited

[Maddawg]

I cut the rear of the front fender clear back to the lower fender mounting bolt, cut the cladding to match and then blended the new radius into the wheel arch. trimmed the seam to where it doubles up and pounded it flat. 35's of 16x8" wheels just fit. Tires still rub the top of the fenders when a big bump is hit.

Do you have a lift?

Moog 784 springs in the rear and about 2.5 inches in front.

Seems like you and I have the same lift. I'm looking to add 33's to my rig but wimpy about cutting and bashing. I'm pretty sure 32's will fit with an 8" wheel and 0 to -19 mm offset (-.75 offset) and no cutting except possibly in front. I really want to use a 15" wheel but most of those are butt ugly or have the wrong offset.
