Also some info on my truck

I have a 1989 4runner 3.4 swap from a 99 Tacoma, it’s fully trussed and gusseted locked front with a Detroit and a locked rear with a grizzly, both axles have Yukon 529s front axle has og bobby longs and the front end has 12inch bilstiens with 3inch trail gears and trail gear hi steer, in a few weeks I’m ordering parts for hydro assist, the rear end has 12inch bilstiens also and 4leaf 63 chevys. I started the tub already but I am thinking of cutting the rear at the “fender flare” body line, I don’t rub on the outside with the 2.5 inches I’ve cut off already but I rub on the inside on the seat mount. So I’m thinking of just following the body line and removing the rear seats indefinitely and doing a full tub instead of just removing the inside outer half of the fender well. What are your opinions, and I do not have any pics of it with what I have cut yet so this is just with the tires mounted

This is what I would do. If need be you can just fab up new fender wells. Those tires are going to need a lot of room. Make it, then go from there.

Its a 4runner this means rear seat, kind of the reason to have not just started with a pickup truck in the first place isn't it?

​​​​​​like said above I would start by making the clearance

I never intended on having passengers in the back after the swap honestly annoys me when having a bunch of people in my runner while I’m wheelin I already planned on the seats being removed permanently and if needed then I’ll mount 2 bucket seats, also I chose the 4Runner for a reason and I built and ran this truck for the past 4 years on 35s/36s I just now wanted to step it up before I go tons so a pickup is not gonna be a concern nor do I want one
