Fender tubs question - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

So we just had some custom R/T Tuning knuckles and flca's installed and are getting crazy steering angle. Winter project is to make tubs to stop rubbing and having to bang out the fender liners more. Ordered a tub kit from Summit and didn't like it. What are people using? I have heard of using trailer fenders but can't find any wide enough. Thanks,

Tractor Supply has tubs pretty cheap (trailer fenders).

I have seen the ones at tractor supply. They seem fine but it looks like I beed at least 10 inches and the biggest ones they carry are 9 inches wide. Anyone else have suggestions?

People build their own....

if it is just a track car, then just cut the fender wells in the front.... If you can't weld, just cut some aluminum and rive them in.....

Welding is not a problem and I do want to keep too much shit from getting into the engine bay while on track. Very helpful. I will let you guys know what our finished product looks like.
