Thanks! Not for the front, yet. With the size of the tubes the bumper sucks to ship. I may make something that is easier to ship and doesn't require welding tubes together.

Oh yeah, a ton. The first 2 are the early pics, ended up cutting more before I was done. The Dissent aluminum bumper wings were cut and shortened about 2” as well.
Please keep me posted. I would be very interested in both this rear and a front piece, if you made something similar.
What size tire and offset did you run that you ended up needing the fenders trimmed? Looks good

I randomly ran into a fellow mudder at Big Bend National Park!
I had seen the modified truck earlier in the week, but didn’t recognize his rig. On the way home, I decided to stop at the visitor’s center to check all the trailer chains and saw him again!
Conversation went something like,
Me: “hey bro, is that kinda like a Land Cruiser??”
We introduce with our real names and pleasantries.
Me: “are you on mud? I’m Radman”
Him: “yea, I’m ‘x’ “
Both: “holy crap, I know who you are!!” And we bro out until the wives make us stop talking and leave.
I’m not going to name him yet in case he doesn’t want the world to know where he is, but iykyk

Only a couple of the finest built LXs conveniently bumping into each other.

Do you have extended bump stops?
Nope. I need to move my front wheel well liners up a bit as, under full compression (normal height), there appears to be a bit of rub.
The tires stay inside the fenders though so I’m not too worried about it at this time.
There's a super easy 10 minute hack for more upward clearance.
In the top picture where you show the plastic clip and liner. Take the clip out. Stack the liner over instead of under the metal fender tab. With your fingers, you should be able to bend the metal tab up further.
That's it. No need to put the clip back which eats up clearance itself. This should hold the liner up that much higher.
How skinny?

Have you tried double stuffing the rear tires?
