jpnjim Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 I was interested to see what these look like on a Jeep, first set of pics I've seen posted so far: http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=937114 Still not sure if I'd like the look on an MJ. I wonder if they break, like the other 'wackers'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryno56 Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 Are those on stock wheel openings or are they enlarged? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpnjim Posted December 5, 2010 Author Share Posted December 5, 2010 Are those on stock wheel openings or are they enlarged? There's more info in the link, but the guy had already opened up his wheel wells before he got the flares, so they were creatively installed higher than normal (atleast in the front) to cover up the existing openings.

driggity Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 From what I've read you have to cut away some of the sheetmetal before you install them. I think they're made of the same material as the regular bushwacker flares so they'd be just as susceptible to breaking. I think they'd look good on an MJ but I really like the look of flat fenders in general. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpnjim Posted December 6, 2010 Author Share Posted December 6, 2010 yes the rears only. hate the front tj flares on the unibody rigs :ack: It's funny tho, someone at GM liked the 'TJ ft flare on an XJ fender' look enough to copy it when they made the H3's. :ack: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mule13 Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 I have the bushwackers on the front of my mj.i havent even been offroad since i installed them i got them because i have full width axles on the front and wanted the protection, i had already cut my fenders so they didnt fit very well. instead of the hardware they sent to install i used self tappers as i had to seperate the back pieces to compensate for the cut fenders,when i did that the fenders didnt wanna stay on so i just ran some tappers in them hope this link works http://www.jeepforum.com/gallery/showph ... mit=recent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
