Inner fenders of 2000 ranger

So I drop my truck in the front with DJM ARMS(upper/Lower) and installed belltech 3inch coil springs... problem I'm rubbing like a motherfucker.. should I deep six the inner fenders (how hard is that?) or smaller tires?.. and would this be consider a 5" inch drop or just 4"drop LOL..Please help fellow mintruckers!

DJM arms give you 2" and with the beltech coils at 3" you get a total of 5". I had the same drop on 225 40 18's and only rubbed on big bumps. So, before chopping up your fenders, which involves alot of relocating things i would just get smaller tires. Alot of those components int he engine bay are directly above the inner fender. Just cutting them out is only going to give you about 1/4 to 1/2 inch more.

he is right just get smaller tires what are you running now mine only rubbed on big bumps also

Yea thats what I thought, but do you guys bump on the fender lip itself or just the inner fender part. I have 18's in the front, and I just don't wanna hit with 18's in front so I was thinking to go down a inch or two from the overall diameter (27.4) and 25.4 or maybe 26.6. ??

def small tire, pull the plastic doesnt really do much as the metal is just as low.

I had to grind the raised area of the plastic off and it didnt hit anymore. Hell I lay out now with inner fenders and tiny tires.

Very nice, I knew I like you guys for a reason. When its all done I'll post pics.Thanks MINITRUCKER bros~
