MetalCloak Inner Fenders Clearance Issue

[Billyj7175]

1" both front and rear.

I do have the Artec inner liners front and rear. Not really a big fan of them but they work. I did the fender chop but am going to remove them shortly and go the with the Motobilt highline fenders and probably high clearance inners from Motobilt as well.

Nice setup!

Are you running the Motobilt front fender support? I like their fender supports, but the old man in me says that little LED may be an issue in bright daylight.

What's the offset or backspacing in your rims?

Thank you sir!

I am currently running the Quake lights for the fender chop. Those will come off when I do the Motobilt fenders and the button LED will take its place. I will probably also go with Diode Dynamics headlights that have the turn signal built in for some reassurance.

Thank ya. I'm still on the fence on whether I want to chop the fronts, or replace them.

I went with a -12mm offset on KMC beadlocks. I wonder if that is why you can run less bumpstop (along with the fender mods).

I was fortunate to be close to the CTI trailer a few weeks in a row. I started with 3" and made adjustments and was able to get down to 1". It's basically maxed out with the available travel now.

The tire does get up in the fender but they are plastic so I don't really worry too much about it.

I'm just curious, what size of tire are you running and how many bump stop spacers do you have on the front and rear?

Sorry for the delayed reply. I am running 3 MC pucks front and rear (~3”) with 37x12.5R17 Atturo Trail Blade XTs on Rocktrix RT117 17x9 -12mm offset (4.5” backspace). I can’t go any less, because at full stuff, with the wheels turned, I just barely rub the rear of the front fender liner (for me I don’t think even a different set of inner fenders would help, since on the diesel the windshield washer fluid tank is right behind the liner).

I'm 3/3 on the MC pucks as well on my 38's with the same dimensions on the wheel.
I've seen some inner liners that relocate that tank, but I can't remember what brand they were.
My plans are to chop the front fenders and hopefully go back to only 2 pucks on the front. Then run a high clearance liner in the rear, and hopefully be able to remove a puck on the rear.
