I definitely think we could have done it, but would be a whole lot less staring at it then if we let Jrob's sheet metal guy do it.

alot of then especially if we added

cool project though! definitely recommend to 40 guys.

We need to wait and and see how fender wells go before we recommend it! Personally think that's going to be one of the harder parts. Going to take alot of And a little :whoops: and and then......well woody needs a plasma cutter and a redo on here!

I want to hide the engine and everything, and also keep mud or what ever out of the engine compartment. I do not have a problem with over heating, so....

I would think you could fab up some sheet metal inners much easier than morphing the stock stuff into the MT fenders.

I feel whachur saying... but i find that since you can't cover up the bottom.. mud gets in there anyway, so i always pull those crappy soft liners to be able to get a better shot of pressure washing... i realize I'm backwards and do things all shunt-like.

Cheap fenders are available for chopping the inners out if you need them.
