That is true, I also think it looks fantastic compared to what I see at our local off-road park.Hey! As long as I am happy with my build, that’s all that matters.
Well, we pushed it off a really tall cliff shortly after setting it on fire once we comfirmed it performed as well as it looked.That is true, I also think it looks fantastic compared to what I see at our local off-road park.
Well we pushed it off a cliff shortly after setting it on fire once seeing it complete.
We learned that its not our happiness and good thoughts and feelings that will get us through the trails and up over the rocks.
If that rig couldn’t do it I’d blame the driverWell, we pushed it off a really tall cliff shortly after setting it on fire once we comfirmed it performed as well as it looked.

Yea, driver mods were not around yet.If that rig couldn’t do it I’d blame the driver
If it’s a TJ we are talking about...Well, they were born in mid to late 90’s.
Why do you think there is no 96 model. Jeep is smarter than that. 97 and up dude, no millennials here.So the Jeep is not a millennial?!?
See post #48. The one you quoted was deleted for inaccuracy.FML, but in all honesty, I was trying to refer to the owner...but damn. Killing me son!!!
Ok, for the sake of non arguing. I will say, that a 35” tire stuffed into a stock fender at full flex looks to be rubbing all kinds of shit up in there. But a flatflender’d set up seems to have more room around the tire with less “fender” to come in contact with. Savvy !! I never questioned that i wouldnt hit inside the inner fender. Mr Chestbeater felt compelled to throw his $.02 inPsst, there are a few threads on here with some of these guys who have put on many different flat fenders and did what he’s telling you to do, without a high line cut he is right.
I was with you on visual but he’s not wrong. But if you like what you like and hit fireroads and don’t fully flex, should be good.

For my application, that one inch of BL isnt going to do much in the way of the tire not coming in contact with the inner fender. I would still have to adjust the stops to limit articulation while being disconnected, but i most likely wont disconnect (i dont have SBD anyways ((yet)) As said prior, there is a LOT more work involved to “properly” run 35s for off road use. I get it. ive read a lot of threads stating those facts. I just wanted to know if i HAD to run a BL to put 35s on my rig
They really need to figure out a sarcasm font !!

As I said from the very beginning, a small body lift with make the setup and performance better. And your fenders do nothing to improve clearance over stock. This is not opinion.
Set the bump stops to where they need to be and the Jeep will function.
Now stop arguing and instead take the time to understand this stuff.

...flatfenders have less crap for the tire to come in contact with vs a stock fender w/flare. You are so quick to only point out that the tire will hit the inner portion of the fender, which i dont deny. Im saying the donut fits the hole better with flatfenders. When i see pics of tires stuffed into stock fenders i cringe, just waiting for a lug to catch the flare and start ripping shit off.
Looks and reality are different.
His photos arent showing everything. Go thru and read a few more of his posts and photos and you'll see what contact he is talking about. Stock flares are meant to flex out of the way until the tire hits the body. Flat flares are still considered body and are in the same spot as the OE fenders, they just dont have a flexible flare.
I dont plan on doing any extreme wheeling with the Jeep, main purpose is to explore a few remote trails with my wife and dogs. So not really needing huge amounts of articulation. I mainly want the option of 35s for a little extra clearance. I’ll run the 33s til they i need a new set. I do prefer the stance and look of TJs with 35s.
I don't think he wants 10/10 performance and that's OK.
I doubt 95% of Jeep owners will ever push their Jeep past 6/10I don't think he wants 10/10 performance and that's OK.
