Fender Trimming

[gearhead77]

Do any of you have pictures or drawings of how to cut N/T Wagoneer fenders to accept 35x12.50x15 tires? I already have 4"s of suspension and 3"s of body lift. I am hoping to still have a somewhat "stock" apperance.Thanks.

This might work for your lift which is 3" higher than mine:

yea, flint's link is about what you want to remove. I took out a lot more, but I've got a lot of travel....

here's a pic of where I cut when I started this junk:

I've got 6" of lift and 35s, they fit great. Basically I just followed the outside line of the fenders....

rob, did you have to do any filling along the lines you cut? that's exactly how i was thinking of trimming mine, so i fit some larger tires, before i invest in a lift.

There was a pretty decent size gap after this, gets mud and stuff up in there....I ended up moving the axle back a couple of inches and in the process, redid the rear fenders and flapped the inner fender towards the outer one to fill the hole, but it's not finished yet...

Wish my reason for the initial cut was not the rust, might have had something close to that to work with.
