After rolling the fender as flat as I could, the tire now clears pretty good at the ride height I plan on running. But when I set the suspension on the bump stops, it starts to hit the fender as the steering is approaching full lock.

Keep in mind, this is not the final product. It started raining before I could finish the one side I’ve been working on, but it’s to a point now where it would probably never rub. I just used some random hardware I had laying around to see if this would even work. And it does!
I attached a turnbuckle to the unrolled part of the fender and the inner fender piece. This allowed me to loosen the turnbuckle until the fender was pushed out just enough.

Every picture was taken with the suspension resting on the LCA bump stops. Once I add another turnbuckle to the front side of the wheel well, I don’t see it ever rubbing anywhere.
I may not even need the other turnbuckle, so I’m going to wait until I drive it with this setup before I drill anymore holes.

I did the same pushing/holding the top of the lip out. But I just used washers.

you might consider a countersunk Allen bolt for attaching to lip so the tire won’t catch it.

I didn’t have access to a fender roller like that. It was about 10 years ago. So I used the baseball bat technique
