I heard it's called a dovetail. But it's where you push the fenders so the tires will stick out past the fenders. I think you also have to narrow the grille but can you still make it street legal? Post pics if you have a dovetailed jeep.

Its actually a dovenose, dovetail is doing the same to the rear. Lots of builds with doved fronts on Pirate4x4, go check out the Cherokee section there
