    every time i turn and hit a bump it rubs the side closes to the doors... idk how to explain it cause its not the back of the wheel well its just the back front side of the well. it happens on both sides, if i turn right the right tire rubs. if i turn left the left tire rubs. idk if im making sense.

    Lets just say i need to bash up the firewall side of the wheel wells :)

    i know i was reading about it but im at a 6 inch lift and is always done this but only when it flexes, and sense im going to moab i really dont want it to be rubbing and hitting all day on the trails it gets annoying. so mine as well do something about it. im not looking for ways to fix the problem and not bashing it like jace is i just want to know what i need to cut bash and bend on the wheel well so it can clear :)

    while waiting for pic...

    If you're not exactly sure where, then you may have to pull your coilover and cycle the suspension to find exactly where you're rubbing.

    -or- go wheeling with a buddy and find a spot where you can make it rub and have your buddy drive while you mark it up with a sharpie or something to do surgery when you get home.

    Is that your actual wheel well/fire wall at the back or is that the plastic fender liner?

    If it's the plastic liner, just need to remove it and beat back the pinch weld.

    some just take a BFH to it and some cut it into 2" sections and beat each section back in opposite directions. That helps keep it from splitting open from what I understand.
