dillin, this guy has 4''susp. and 3''body with 44'' gumbo mudders. those tires measure a bit small(probably more like 40'') so with 12''s of lift and a true 44'' tire you should be free and clear of tire fitment issues. as long as your body is in good shape, their is no need for cutout flares. most guys use them to get rid of wheelwell rust. these old fords have big nice open wells that work good with big tires. here's the link for some reference

Ther is no such thing as retarded questions. Just retarded people asking them. :/flipoff
Seriously, there is only a top side and bottom (so the lower coil cups can mount up), there is no left and right.
