Die grinder + fender = "breathing room"

my truck has wat basically looks like a 1 and a half inch piece of solid steel under the front coils with a longer bolt running through it.....

but im with the other guys, if its only an inch your wanting to gain i would just trim the edges of the fenders

DISCLAIMER i am not saying do this ...mine is not a daily driver and is only for off road use

Mines a DD, and the fenders are cut. Especially since its a DD, I'd be more concerned with safety rather than cosemetics. Either trim your fenders or get longer coils.
