    Yep, that's mine on 35x12.5x15 MTR's and 15x8 3.75"BS wheels and stock width axles.

    Let Chad cut it for you, he cut David's WJ and it looks nice.

    They fit. I had a chance to take them on a trail a few weeks ago.

    No, they don't run in the rear at all, weird angle in the picture. They rub just a tad on the front, under the front fender. More cutting.

    I don't like the increased sidewall flex, weird feeling when off camber, so I will go to a 17" wheel next summer and get some MTR Kevlars.

    This was a free swap 35's for 37's on 15" rims, so I couldn't pass up the chance to see if they would fit. Besides, it gave me a chance to cut more stuff on the Jeep.

    I adjusted the doors, to minimized the gap, drank some beer and said, free bigger tires would make it all better.

    I'm still going to take it to a frame shop now that all the CO trails are snowed in and see what can be done.

    Damn, these smart phones work! Cutting doors to fold up. Need to make room for more cutting to follow.

    Bottom of front door welded flat. I cleaned it up a bit, then hit it with the black rattle can.

    Inspired by AgitatedPancake (Greg) and fluxcap (Tyler), the rockers are coming out next weekend and new sliders welded in.

    Anyone need some slightly used WJ sliders?
