Wolfe mini tubs almost done Well I must say I went ahead and started doing this myself and I must say its not near as bad as I thought it would be. I got the passenger side cut out and welded up today and it went really good. Ill be starting the driverside this weekend and I will post up some before and after pics.
Now mind you I have access to any tool I could ever imagine I would need. but primarily I used my plasma cutter a grinder, my saws all, and a good welder. I have never tried to tackle something like this before so if I can do it anyone can. Cant wait to get it dont and put the big tires under her and lower the car down with the tires tucked in the fender wells. I just thought I would post up because Ive seen a few post of pics but no one really indicating its not that bad to do.

I have really been tossing this idea around.. I have NOOO welding experience though.. and maybe not as much access to ANY tool I need.. a good many though.. what size tires you plan on tucking under there.. Please post Pics NOW!!!

Have you trimmed your fender openings yet? I'm running a 29.5 X 15 non W and I had to trim to get it to fit the new lowered stance. What else are you doing besides the mini tub to get that big tire to fit while lowering the car too? I'm curious.

I did have to trim the lips down the tire sucked up in the well very nice I used alot smaller spring and have it adjustable as well. the car looks sick sitting down on the tire. Im going back out there saturday and will take pics of what I did.

I also plan on doing this in a little while. I'm going to be ordering my stuff from wolfe soon now that they are having their 20% off Christmas sale.
