how to push tire back some

[jeepgeek2002]

The front is getting pushed out...
The rear was a concern but after reading everyones posts..i shouldn't have to worry.

Thanks All

Well when the rear flexes the tire moves rearward not forwards. You'll have bigger issues on the rear portion of the fender.

Mine stuff so far up in the fender well that the top of the tire hits the top center of the fender well. Mine are also cut all the way up to the spot welds.

...I no longer have spot welds, or pinch seam.
if you take a marker, trace around a factory mounted flair, and cut that line... that is how far I have trimmed
(More commonly known as a stump cut)

I have a picture of a 38 TSL clearing with 2" all the way around, at ride hight, when I was only lifted 3"... jjst don't have that pic on my phone or I'd show ya...

What'd you do to fill the gap?

Comp cut, gas tank relocation, flip leaves for ~5" stretch and run as big a tire as you want.

Welded sheet metal back in.

comp cut? we re not talking wranglers here..

Yah I know we're not talking wranglers but if you comp cut the rear section then you can stretch the wheelbase to whatever you want and not have to worry about rubbing front or back of the wheel well.

Your right, they aren't but you can definitely comp cut a xj, I wouldnt if it was a street jeep though. I plan on comp cut and flip the springs with my 37's
