You could keep the flares and buy a body lift. They are relatively inexpensive.v8vendetta wrote:tedlovesjeeps71 wrote:I agree with finding waggy flares for the front.

Looks like they cut the front bumper on that one too which I am not a fan of. I want to do this to clear some bigger tires on a tight budget, and to tell you the truth I feel pretty bummed about it too. That's why I offered to give/sell them to another J-truck that could use them so that I can't say it was all for nothing
Somebody cut a couple sections out of the flares and made them taller and longrr to clear bigger tires and keep the flares. Takes 2 sets of flares to make one but looks really cool! Pretty sure it was Cherokee jim.v8vendetta wrote:tedlovesjeeps71 wrote:I agree with finding waggy flares for the front.

Unfortunately, the only 8-lugs I have are on my crawler. Forgot I have plans this weekend but, I might be able to make a trip up that way in a couple weeks. I'll try to get some pics of the fenders I've got so you can determine if you'd even want them. They're still on a Wag so I'd need a day to get them removed, as well. I can't help with the rear fenders, sadly.v8vendetta wrote:That seems like an interesting proposition. Unfortunately the only thing I have that would be able to haul fenders is the J-20, and the tires are shot on it. Happen to have any 16" tires or 8x6.5 wheels w/tires?
