Re: another NAC xj on 35's now

Oh come on now, 35's were soooo last year!! Jk, looks good!! Judging by the pics you almost have room in the rear, but for the front remove the flare and remount it with top edge of the flare even with the body line on the fender (cut the lower 1/3rd of the flare off) then trim away some metal. You may not need much more lift, just some key fender trimming.

thanks in the picture you cant see it becuase my ugly mug is in the way but i trimmed up to that body line already so i think i'll be good but your right the back does need a little help, im trying to delay my budget boost plan becuase i think with more lift im gonna need long arms...
