im not talking trimming the bosy, you dont need to actually cut it up, you jsut hammer down the pinch weld that you cant see with fenders on anyway

The first gen wheel wells are larger. You can run a 4" with 35's. Or move the axle forward 2" with rears up front. You will need high steer if you do that
