How many of you running 40s had to trim the front wheel well? I'm installing axles and 40s now and it looks like the tires are going to rub the the wheel wells (where the pinch seam starts). I still have to flex it out to see if so and how bad. Had to quit for the night though. I have the axle pushed forward about an inch right now (again just in the beginning stages of setting everything up).

X3. But only in the passenger side at full turn full flex. It's even rubbing the frame a bit.

You can also move your steering stops to not turn as sharp.

I am the same as everyone else. If it is the perfect way ill just barely get the grille but that is pretty rare.

Looks good. I was asking about the front though. Do you have any rubbing in the front?
