Cutting out fenders?

I've only ever seen one and it was in an older issue of CRAWL
 
PM CreeperSleeper or Helocat (Mark @ MetalTech). They have both done it and would be happy to talk about it. One or both will probably post up.

From what I remember, there isn't nearly as much room to carve away at the rear as there is in the front.
 
Flareless plus some rear quarter trimming and 37's should be easy on 4" :grinpimp:

Space down your shock travel and bumstops and stick to a 9" eye to eye travel shock. Clearance your rear quarters and run 37's, just stick to a narrower tread like Cooper STT.

With your body lift, narrow 37"s will probably fit. Will need some bump stop extension in the rear, 2"? The only trimming I did was a small "Phil nip" to the rear flare.
