Tire Question
I know this has probably been covered before but I don't have time to search and hunt for it so here goes. I have a 79 bronco and a 73 F-150 that I want to put 37 inch hummer tires on. I don't want to lift them all I want to do is cut the fenders out. The vehicles are only off road so looks doesn't matter. Has anyone tried this and if so how much did you have to trim and did it work?

Put them on and start cutting until they clear, or if they wont go on, cut til they go on, then cut till they clear at full lock and up travel. Not to be short but thats a way to do it. Someone else may know an exact amount but I dont think everyone cuts their fenders exactly the same way.

i dont remember how much excatly i cut outta my 77 to fit my 38's but on the corners it was like 3-4" and the rest was like 2" then on the back (mines a stepside) i only had to trim the front corner of the fenders
heres some pics that i scrounged up real quick of it
This one ya can kinda see where i just cut the corner off in front the tire
