Front yard Flexing
« on: August 13, 2009, 10:31:48 PM »
Got bored this morning decided to disconnect front sway bar and test out the flex with my trimmed fenders and bigger tires. Pretty suprising, and not too much rubbing either. Another inch and a half of lift should put me in a pretty good place for a while.

Heres some poser shots just because

It looks good. Cherokees naturally have good flex. You just have to get them up high enough to let it show.

The cut is right along the original curve of the fender. You had already said you didn't like trimmed front fenders in the first place. But thats ok, cuz your still running baby tires. Some day you might actually understand.  :P

The rear comes out alot cleaner with the cut and fold method, the front is just what it is, always seems to look a little chopped from what I've seen no matter how meticulous you are about it.

hm... well looking at your picture it looks like they're are 2 halves of the fender on there. and they're not painted on the inside  so what do you do? maybe im just not looking at the picture right.

2 halves? shwat? Doesn't that equal a whole? I really don't know what your talking about broseph.  Roger can you maybe translate? Your other half is confusing me.
