Rusty Rat Rod Early A Fender Mod For Taller Tires

Ok. THANK YOU so much! Just so I'm clear, the only area you cut is where I circled in red, NOT the part with the 90 degree lip. Is that correct?
Rusty,
To start, I would mount the front wheels first, and turn left and right to see if you have any issues. Do this with all the weight on the suspension. This will give you a better idea whether you need to do this, or not. And if you do, where you need to make the mod.
