It should not be to hard. I have seen guys do it when they bag their rides that way the tire rod will clear the frame but nothing for turning radius. You would need some like 2", 2 1/2 angle iron or some tubing to weld back in. Would for sure use atleast 3/8 inch think if not thicker. Just need a welder and torch.

Pics would be nice. I don't think I need a big chunk taken out, maybe just an inch or 2. The tires rub in the front on the fenders which have been rolled, thats why I want to go to a 295 to possibly cut down on the rubbing. It doesn't sound like a hard job as long as I don't take too much out.

I'm just getting back home and I was surprised by the amount of heads turning when I rolled by. This is my first set of wheels and I can say that I'm loving it=] But what do you guys think about a black background? Just a thought, maybe maybe not.

Just a few more pics on the way. I have to do some MINOR cutting to the body kit. @ the most, I'll have to remove a 1/2" strip from the inner side, just to keep that annoying rubbing sound down. Then I will cut a little bit of the frame where the wheel rubs and weld in a pice of pipe that has been cut in half so that the wheel will tuck right into it.

I just ordered some clear corners that are just like the factory ones, none of that Euro stuff, I hate it. And I might smoke those, not sure tho.

Riding today, I noticed that my driver's side rear rim was rubbing the inner wheel well and touching the leaf spring a lil but on the pass side, its pretty clear. Has my diff shifted or something? How do I fix this?
