Here is a good side view of mine, the rear axle is moved back 5.5".
trustyk5 that is perfect on the sides of the wheel well i can cut the fender just like yours to get rid of the rust but need to know what to do about the top of the fender . i can cut the top but dont know what to do with the inner fender .cause if icut it it will look like too fenders if you know what i mean?
I cut the inside a bit higher than the outside. This leaves a nice clean appearance from the outside. This also leaves a large open area for water and debris to drop out without collecting up there and making more rust problems.
I think the top of my arch is 3.5" down from the body line. If you look at the pic you'll see both front and rear openings are the same height now.
