Has anyone used this stuff? I need like 1.5" to help cover tires - at least for inspection. :rolleyes:

I'd love to see pics, and do you know off hand if I can make a 90 degree bend in it so I can tie it to the outside lip of my TJ flare and have it sit perpendicular?

TIA,
Bryan

Actually, this looks perfect:

Damn thats a good idea! Cheap too, that is if you use the lawn edging. If you do it be sure to post some pics. Thanks.

It would probably work, but it may look a little :rainbow: I bought a roll of the fender extention (like your second post), but I don't remember the price, it was from JC whitney and was 25 feet long

It was like $40 for a pair, and it probably will look :rainbow:, but I gotta pass! Even worse, it's only the front that sticks out! Crap.

I don't have any pics, but I did this on my Scrambler untill I could buy some extended flares. I think I spent less than 10 bucks to do it. If you just need it to pass inspection, this is what I would do.

Take your stock flares off. Get the widest trim that you can find, I think I used some that was 4 or 6 inches wide. You need to get the kind that has a tight rolled edge on one side (about the diameter of a drinking straw), and the other side is a larger rolled edge (that you will cut so the edge that goes to inside lip of fender sheet metal is shorter and leave a longer plastic lip that goes to the outside of the fender sheet metal, covering the stock fender flare attatchement holes.).

Take the edging and hold it up to the fender. Cut the length that you need ( doing one fender at a time). Then take the edge, opposite the rolled edge and cut a slit all the way down to slip the sheet metal from the fender into. You need to do this in a way to allow enough plastic from the trim to cover the stock fender flare attachement holes, on the outside of the metal fender.

Then poke a cross-hair mark (using a drywall knife) about the size of the screw used for attachement, and poke the screw into it and screw it on (I used sheet metal screws instead of stock nut and bolt). Do this fro each of the screw holes.

You want the small rolled edge on the outside lip of the flare (edging) to help give it support on the bends).

You can e-mail me if you need better instructions, although I'm sure once you get to a garden center you will be able to figure it out. I ended up leaving mine on the Scrambler the entire time I had it. They bend well, and pop right back out. Besides you can't beat the price. Greddy

man I thought you were talking bout

Yardwork by Jeep...

I use my jeep to do all kinds of yardwork. Stumps pulling.
Old plants that the previous owner planted.. Yank them puppies right out.

Warn is cool. :D

yo OX, welcome to the dark side :trooper:

Go to a commercial truck dealer, or parts supplier. They sell the fender extensions like the stuff pictured, and I've found these guys are often cheaper than auto parts suppliers.

No I don't have a price, but it would be in Can$ anyway.

a friend of mine uses the lawn edging on his Zuki to pass inspection, he attaches it with snaps so he can remove it for wheeling. Sorry, no pictures, but it looks easy enough.

PICS:question: Anybody:question: I am going to have to do the same thing on my Cherokee and maybe have to get some anti-splat attack cheezee mudflaps. I am gonna be the keenest, most stylinist guy on the block with them suckers! :barf::rainbow::barf: Friggin' DOT! :flipoff:
