    you know I didn't check, but then again, I didn't notice any issues when I put the driver side tire back on and swung the jeep around the block before pulling it back in the garage.

    Ill pay more attention tonight..

    Same issue I ran into, ended up cutting my fender some. With stock width(narrow)axles I don't believe you can run wide trac mounts.

    My end result.

    I feared the worse so I ran home at lunch today to take a look at the jeep..
    I don't see how this will be a problem.
    Driver side looks OK to me.

    The issue you will have and you won't see it till it's too late is when you compress one side and drop the other. Not saying you will have this problem but that's a hole you can't fix with a plug.
