I'm about to install my shackles on my 2wd sport X and then do a TT so I can fit my 32's in. I'm anticipating some trimming, but what exactly will I be trimming? And what tool will I need to do the trimming? Thanks

You'll be trimming where ever you rub and you'll be using 2 of my favorite tools to fix the rubbing problem, A sawzall and possibly a big hammer. :D
 






Shoot, I don't have a sawzall with me. Is there anything else I could use?
 






I use a 4" grinder instead of a sawzall. Works well.
 






i did the same as Alec!
 






Lets see some pics when your done!
 






could use a hack saw. I am going to be doing some serious cutting soon. Not just enough or just barely enough, after I am done i will be able to take out the stupid tt and shackles and run 33s
 






Well I had to go with 31's but there was still some rubbin and all I have is a hacksaw so that will have to do. I'll try to get some pics next week. Thanks for all your advice everyone.
 






i used a hacksaw also. take your time and you can hardly tell you trimmed. good luck
