I have a rock krawler 3.5 in lift on 37s. Does it make sense that I need to cut the rear pinch seams. I know the axel was pushed back some but everything I read people are cutting the front.

 

I had to cut the rear on mine. Only had a couple inches clearance between the point of the pinch seam and my 35's, so I cut it off with a sawzall and bi-metal blade, then rattle canned it with rust-proofing and black enamel. Got about an extra inch outta the deal.

 

Thanks, that's what I'm going to do.

 

I cut mine to clear my 37's. See pics below. I used a reciprocating saw too.



I also shortened my rock rail.

See planman's write up for some good visuals to help you out.

Good luck..

 

Uea. Cut mine down too and I only have 33s. Never know though
