You can try to roll the fenders.

And please get rid of those air shocks before you tear a hole in your sheet metal.

New shocks are like $20 bucks a piece anyways.

 

kk please leave the air shock comment to yourself i have heard so many already but i love them and i have them in correctly were they wont go through the sheet metal. but thank you for the advice on the rolling the fender but i heard there was an easier way with a baseball bat???

 

heres the baseball bat method

as for the air shocks how are they mounted? There's other cars that work fine with air shock's, and they can be made to work on mavericks.

 

just cut the lip off with a grinder and a cut off wheel

 

I used a good old ball peen on my well lips. ****, stock replacement shocks can rip those shock mounts right off, as did my passenger side a few years ago with some cheap Gabriels.

 

if you cut it off wont it still leave a small edge that may cut it?

and it you cut far enough wont the inner fender/wheel well come apart?

 

I would also like to see how you have mounted the air shocks "correctly where they won't go through the sheet metal".

 

Are you INSAIN!!!!!

The most i put in is 80, and thats for both!

 

if you get the correct offset and rim width for the tire, you won't have a rub problem.

mine are 275X60X15s...stock shocks...3 leaf springs.

do you have a pic. of this..."100psi in each rear shock?"

...Frank...

 

Definitely a problem with the incorrect wheels being used. With the right wheel offset, those tires would fit raising the rear at all. I am guessing you have 1.5 inches or more clearance between the tire and the leaf. Tuck that tire further inboard and you ought to be fine.

 

blah HA ...You have the WRONG rear wheel offset...Period.

To correct the problem,you`ll need different wheels.

 

i have no camera at this time but i will post pictures when i do. the rims that are on it now are the ones that were on it when i bought it. discount tire had said the rim is a 15x10 when i called today i asked about back spacing and they had said that shouldnt be the problem since i have a 4.5inch backspace(which they measured).
i do have p icture of the previous tires which were 225 50 15 on the car

 

You have a lot of room to go before the tire hits the leaf spring. Mine sits about 1/2" away.

You have air shocks and helper springs?
