    Also who needs besides. I got a least two inches of bulge. Just need to extend the inner bracing to keep it flared.

    Hell yeah brother!! Getting rid of the fender liners right? I've been meaning to do mine but it barely scrapes by a hair so not worried. At least till I do 14in shocks and shackle flip

    Yep! Just ripped them out so no going back. The only hard part is im going to lose the bed side brackets. So I'll have to build new ones.

    That's good to know for future reference. That will be easy to do.

    Yep. I'd have to build new ones anyway to get that extra width to cover the tires.

    Easy. Pull off the brackets. Insert bottle jack. Bend bedside out. Make new brackets that are longer. Haha

    Well maybe that easy but you get the idea. If I wasn't hacking off the lip of the wheel well it would be easier. :rofl:

    I'm doing now. I messed around with the bulging first.

    My plan is cut flare. Mark fender. Remove flare. Cut fender. Use bottle jack to push out fender. Make brackets. Done.

    I hope :fingerscrossed:

    @90yota

    You need to cut yours. It looks so much better. Mine bugged me how the front was so aggressive and the rear looked stock. Way better with a thinner flare. And my tire is covered now.

    Super simple. I made one bracket for the top to push out the upper fender. Bolted that to the wheel well. Then just extended the two bottom ones with some alumimum strip. I have some clean up to do but for a rush job it's good enough. I only have one day to get it done. :(

    This worked out way better than I was expecting.

    Think its possible to do it without cutting the flare? Are you running spacers in the rear to match the front width?

    You probably could. It might be a little harder to bend out with the fender lip still in place.

    I still have a few things to clean up on mine. After finishing it I learned a few things that I have to go back and redo. Some of it looks kind of half ass. But still better than fiber glass.

    I'm running 1.25" rear spacers. That's why 4.5" bed sides didn't make much sense.
