just trim the crap out of them and get some sheet metal and make your own wheel wells.

so no need to for me to post really, but yeah cut em way out...and fill them back in
i found premade rear buckets at summit racing for 75 bucks, for arch size 35,38,40,42

that looks like it might be the way to go

i spent $15 for my metal from the steel yard.. thought it does take more time than those pre made ones... i think i saved money.. yeah more welding in stuff but i didn't fully weld them... just some one inch welds and then used sealant on the rest

if your in a hurry... then yeah get the pre made ones..

I cut pieces of 10 gauge yesterday on my plasma table at work, gonna do built in beer holders in each rear well! Maybe do some lights pointing down on the rear tires?

maybe not the tires as much as the chassis and areas you may need to wrench on.


air conditioned beer holders:icon_cheers:
