[QUOTE="oldbeercans, post: 1000933, member: 17361"] i decided that the fenders needed more trimming. last time i wasnt happy with the single thickness of the fender edge. so this time i did it a little differently. i drew a line were i wanted my finished edge to be. then duplicated a second line 3/4" below the first line. i cut everything below the second line off with tin snips. i then cut tabs up to my first line every 1/2inch or so. after cutting the tabs i bent the tabs over tight into the fender on the back side. this left me with a fairly rigid edge and gave me more room to stuff the tires. i am also debating if i should cut the factory battery boxs out and patch in some tin which will inturn give me about 3" more room for tire in the front of the fender. i would relocate my batteries in my upcoming flat bed. i also need to cut the inner fender to make room for my shock hoops. i scored a 3 gauge a-pillar pod for a dodge at work and did some trimming to make it fit nicely around my roll cage. worked out pretty well i thought... great line of sight for gauges and doesnt take away make for outside visability. i also droped the tranny and t-case out of my truck as i am getting ready to setup dual cases. im thinking i will make a trip to bobby long this weekend so i can wrap up my front axle. cant f'ing wait.:redneck: cheers:beer: [/QUOTE]
