Do you guys and gals think it is worth it to prevent scraping?

What?
If what you speak of is like what we used to do to older (60s-70s cars) for more clearence in the fenderwell , theres not much you can do to a KJ . You can trim some off of the flares in the rear to stuff the tires more but not too much else unless you want to cut and hack like some do.

I dont think its possible, definitely not as easy as an XJ or Subaru.

I cut alot of my rear flares off and "rolled" the outer lip of the rear fender well to tuck my tires up into the wells better without ripping the flares off.

Thanks for the responses.. doesn't really seem like it is worth it yet. Probably cut further down the line. The tool to do it that I saw was around $200.. I think that I will hold off on it.

Thanks again!

Oh, you mean me; right? :ROTFL:

JeepJeff, Tom is right. There's not much you can do to the Liberty. Alot of us have had to think out of the box to solve problems.
