thanks for the comments guys--no how-to on trimming---basically just cut a little at a time until you dont rub....basically
and of course now my 4x4 doesnt work--posi-lok cable so no vacuum or actuator problems--think i may have pooched something inside the diff. going to be a while before i fix it might as well wait until i re-gear to drop it. to be continued...

Nice job.
I went about it a little different.
I got a free set of brand new 285/75R16 Cooper SST tires. 33"x11.5"
That meant I needed 16" wheels that fit the 5on4.75 lug pattern. Picked upa used set of Firebird wheels for like $70.
Bought a 3" body lift kit someone never installed for $50
Trimmed the fenders front and back.
I'll have to post up some pics tonight. They aren't on this pc.

Looks good!
However it looks like you still have some rubbing issues on the back of the fender.

Got any room left to trim, and how close are you to the firewall?

actually I've trimmed more now--i know its hard to tell--but theres less fender under there-i promise lol!
the only place im rubbing now is on the frame when i turn, and i may end either building up the steering stops or i might even notch the frame a little.
other than that--i love my truck!! I am reasearching a solid axle swap for the future and i've decided to go coils and later upgrade to coilovers, dana 44 front, ford 8.8" rear, 4.10 gears, aussie locked rear and open front until i decide what type of selectable locker to go with--oh yea
I'm going to keep this truck as low as possible--bigger isnt always better (unless its tires)

Haha, hellz no you would get it all dirty. Thanks I like the engine too, would like it more once its running. I also have 33's on my non zr2. Thankfully the bushwackers take care of that.
