minimum mods for 35's

33's vs 35's photos
When I put the front bumper on, it left a lot of empty space. So I went with 35's. (Setup: Rusty's 2"coil spring lift plus .75" front spacers and TeraFlex bumpstops)

I have 35s mounted on cheap cragars with a 2" bb. On road it works great, and i was planning on going with tube fenders and that would be it; but since options on tube fenders havnt materialized yet, i was thinking why not just take the flares off when i get to the trail, unbolt the front swaybar and go wheelin.

I got 34's on the way. I plan on wheeling it once and see how it rubs. If it is bad, I will remove my fenders 9 (when wheeling) until PSC releases their tub fenders.

Remember that even with the fenders OFF, the pinch seam is still under there, and it can hit the tire on stuffage....so you have to fold that seam over and out of the way, to avoid damaging the tire....do not CUT off the extra metal, it weakens the body...fold it over and hammer it flat....works MUCH better, is not a sharp edge, and preserves the strength of the seam, etc.
IE: Wider, or no, fenders ALONE will not allow larger tires....you must also attende to that seam under there.

Excuse my ignorance , as I am a newbie here.
But would you please point me towards a thread on the Rusty's springs if there is one.
Thanks
