    I helped Rob do his high line fenders. You have to move your fenders up one bolt hole, cut your hood, and relocate some stuff under the hood. There are much better ways to fit big tires though. Also, not a fan of a body lift over 1".

    I used to wheel a lot. . .

    I'm with John. Body lifts over one inch aren't good. Why are you thinking about high lining? how much lift are you running and what tire size? Its a lot of work and you will have to change some of the under hood stuff. Very cool when done, however.

    running 4 in suspension

    with 35s

    wat about limiting straps? (just thought of this)

    or longer bumpstops

    Two different purposes.



    Bump stops are up travel.

    Limiting straps are droop (down travel).

    I run air bump stops to limit up travel and nothing for down travel. I let my coil overs manage the down travel.

    I would say the easiest way would be to use longer bump stops. ThenTube fenders , checkout the metal cloak for for close to highline clearance. Then the most invasive and expensive would be highline.

    Jumping exercises. Thats what my girl friend said and she's 5 ft tall. I started at a 2 inch lift and a one inch body lift to keep her out of my jeep. I said to her I'm going to a 3 inch lift and she said "bring it". Now I'm at 4-1/2 inches and running out of options. So my next plan is to take her out to eat more often and double down on Mothers day.

    I'd suggest longer bumpstops and if necessary a 1" or 1.25" body lift. I ran 35's with RE 3.5" springs, a 1.25" body lift, and bumpstops adjusted to to prevent rubbing. That combination worked well for me. 4" springs should work well too.

    Check out Metalcloak highline fenders.. They are a little expensive but are well worth your investment. I plan on adding many Metalcloak goodies in the next few months. They are local and are really easy to work with. Check out there products if you havent already.

    I had Metalcloak fenders on my YJ and had plenty of room in front for 37s with 4.5" lift. Probably would have needed a little trimming in the rear for 37s. I was running 35s with no problem.
