Default Rough Country 4" Question

Does anyone that is running the RC 4" lift with 35's have clearance issues with the stock fenders at full flex with the swaybars disconnected. Since I've added my discos it does seem to be close when flexed. I haven't had the tires contact the fenders yet and the shock bumpstops seem to be doing an OK job. What I'm afraid of is at some point will the shock bumpstops not be good enough and have the tires hit the fender. I will probably be picking up a set of Teraflex bumpstop extensions before hitting the trail next month just to make sure. Please only comment if you are running or have been around someone running the RC 4" lift.

yes.. more of RC kits need bumstop extensions.. but that is part of the cheap price.. from the 2.5" kit to 6".. we all need extended bumpstops.. best bet is to buy from another retailer and just add them in with 4"..
