Has anyone cut there stock front fenders, in a similar fashion to the way the JK guys are cutting there's? I'm going for it next weekend.

Also wondered if anyone has done this. Looking forward to seeing how it turns out.

Unlike the JK, the KJ'a aren't going to gain any room by cutting. Secondly, with the IFS you are already limited on uptravel, so there isn't anything to be gained in that department either. If you cut them it would be purely for looks, and I'm not sure about that either.

Don't forget I have 33's in there lol. Also there is about 3" overall to be gained especially with the 33x12.5's they hook the flair at full lock and up travel. My thought was to "JK Trim them" and cut the channel they run in on the bumper off. My inner fenders are already gone and so are all of the factory fasteners, I picked up some stainless bolts and bolted them to the fender. That should be the last remaining point of contact between the tires and the jeep. I also relocated the washer bottle using one from a grand cherokee to retain the rear wash pump. So did you actually cut your fender daspes? If so got any pictures?

just look up my post. we cut the stock front flares. but we also plan to fill the gap with 37's
