Niiiiiice

 

Nice Flares, im gonna go the jy route and use TJ fender flares, like the way yours turned out

 

The fit pretty good for knock-off Bushwackers. Good value for the price.

 

Did you get the mid $200 set off of eBay? I was thinking about getting them too, how hard were they to mount and how much did you end up spending on hardware to mount them?

 

Yes. They were $199 plus shipping. Honestly taking them from the box they looked like junk. I almost didn't put them on. They arent pre-drilled and don't come with hardware or instructions. I spent $7 on hardware to do the fronts. Once mounted properly, they seem ridgid, solid. I am happy with the purchase. On the front you will need to trim sheet metal and the plastic inners for propper fit. I removed about 3" of fender all the way around and 4-5" toward the bumper. Still haven't had time to do the backs. I will update when I get some progress.

Measure, measure, double check, measure, double check again, cut.

 

Jeeze that sounds a bit more involved than I was hoping for. What are you using to cut your sheet metal and other fender parts?

 

The whole idea is to get more clearence for the suspension to compress. It's not really about looks for me. Trimming the fender away is really simple. I used a pneumatic sheet metal shear for the fender and scissors for the plastic.

 

SCORE!

Picked these 2 little gems up from a pal from work. No cash, I owe him lunch and a coffee.

Likely going to paint them OD and stencil something cool on them.

 

Major score!!!!

 

Need to get you some NATO jerry cans. They have a better locking systems for the filler spouts as well. I love jerry cans...LOL

 

Very nice jeep man

 

Haha, I seen that picture on your build thread and got super jealous! Nice collection my friend. I'm happy with my freebies for now. One is stamped "USMC" which is cool to me because my brother is a US Marine.

 

Thanks man, hopefully it keeps getting better and better.

 

Love the hunting permit stickers! And as far as the USMC, I was a Marine for 12 years, Semper Fi mother fuc%er!!! ha ha....like the jeep and love the theme....

 

Thanks!

Once a Marine, always a Marine!!!
