Hello!

I recently installed 17’s on the my 2002 4 seater, with one person it is great. With two people is rubs. Wondering 2 things, should I try to shim up the rear fender? Should I move to a set of brackets I have form a 2001 that connect to the frame?

A rear lift is very simple. However if you still have suspension mounted brackets it wont help you. Frame mounted brackets also reduce the cracking and damage to the fender assembly caused by the constant movement of the suspension.

Where can one find these?  
Are these typical ‘shock extenders’ you can get at the auto parts store?
