That seems normal, matt was asking because it seems like you suspension settled like you added weight. Are your struts new? Sometimes when just having your jeep on a lift it takes a little time for the suspension to settle. So if you just added a 2" lift and rubber it might not rub right a way but will once things settle.

Nothing has changed at all. I just started this past week. Hasn't done it at all since I got the tires and rims from Matt
I remember them being pretty close when we put them on.
Is it catching the front of the liner or the rear? Maybe throw on a few zip ties to pull the liner back.
Have you gained some weight lately? hmmm????
Yea I may just have to do the zip tie thing
UPDATE:
Hey guys. one of my last steps was to use zip-ties to pull the plastic liner firm against the body/pinch-weld. Well, I just did this mod again for a friend this weekend and had a better idea!
Driver Side (& passenger side w/o rear HVAC):
Use a 1/4" drill and just put another plastic rivet on the firewall to pull the liner back and hold it in place Does a much better job than zip ties!
Passenger side:
Since the A/C lines don't allow the use of a rivet, I drilled a hole and used a tree-clip (can get them at Lowe's) in between the HVAC lines and bent pinch weld. Then used a self tapping screw outboard of the pinch weld.
Another trick- A creme-brule torche works great for manipulating/shaping the plastic fender well also!
I used a torch on mine got a keep it moving it melts fast LOL

Great write up. I will eventually do this when I get bigger tires. I had seen other step-by-steps, but none as clear as yours. Hopefully, it applies the same to the WK.
Questions:
• Is there are reason why you primed it and then heated up the liner? It seems to me you "ruined" some of your own work with the heat gun and then had to retouch it. I am sure I am missing something, so I figured I would ask.
• Also, are the cuts angled in (sort of like in a slight V) when you say "cut as shown"?
Thanks,
Fernando
