Finally started suiciding my driver side door today and got rained out. Hopefully the rain will clear up and I can finish it tomorrow.

Re: Project '86
You may have covered this earlier in the thread but what kind of turning radius do you have before you get tire rub? Do you have any pictures of the backside of the fenders? I'd like to mod my fenders like that but im not sure what you did with the support structure on the back side or if it is just a skin.

Re: Project '86
The part of the fender where the tire is is just the outside skin but that area is plenty strong that it does not move around. I actually just checked steering clearance yesterday and with the truck about 5" off the ground I can turn lock to lock without hitting the fender. Keep in mind that my track width up front is narrowed. I would not recommend you mod the fenders unless you narrow the track width.

The track width was narrowed when the front was Z'D?
