Making room for the 37s on the back of the front wheel well where it rubbed the fender liner. JKS Max tire kit includes the brackets to eliminate the big plastic block behind the liner so the liner can be pulled in.
I trimmed the bottom edge of the liner, and used zip ties instead of the plastic push rivets to secure to bracket. Also cut off the metal body corner.
@PCDan - yes, 3 yrs after your post but I think I have a similar setup as yours (I have Fox 2.5 with 17x9 wheels with 0 offset) and therefore sounds like identical locations of rubbing with 37s.
I just put on Mickey Thompson MTs and see I need to cut the corner of the pinch weld and pull the front wheel fender liners back to rear of the wheel well.
Did you also cut off the fender liner near the pinch weld? It looks like that is what is catching when going in reverse with the wheel turned.
I see you used the max jks kit and that helped pull the fender liner back but did you think it was necessary to cut the crash bar bracket off? For me with my foxes, it doesn’t look like the crash bar bracket is an issue and it solely the rear of the fender well and pinch weld location. My first inclination was just cut off the whole bottom section of the rear of the fender liner.
Would welcome any feedback from your experience. Thanks.
