    I wanted to do a quick video on a pinch weld mod to clear some slightly larger than stock tires. 32" for example. This is a common place for the tires to rub when you go 1 size bigger (265/75/r16 for example). It's a quick easy mod. Hope you like it.
    Tools I Used:
    Angle Grinder with cut off wheel amzn.to/30QOPyU
    3lb sledgehammer amzn.to/36p1KsI

      I didn’t do anything but you might want to limit the up travel so it doesn’t hit the fender. Bump stops can help. I just posted a video on it

      They definitely will, slight rubbing on the front bumper but just trim it a little. Spacers make them rub more. I just cut mine with hedge trimmer

      The 1” is a big difference. You’ll probably rub without a lift upfront. It’s tight with 33s

    You can run 33’s with no “lift” what do you think happens when your suspension compresses when you are “lifted”. Bad info there but kudos for the pinch weld video
