Rear Wide Track Flares -J10 vs Cherokee

Post by DustinLangston »

Hey all, I am finally undertaking a wide track conversion on a Wagoneer and I came across a question. Are the rear wide track fender flares the same on the J10 truck and the Cherokee? The reason I ask is that my Cherokee donor only has one good flare, but I have access to a J10 truck that I could get the other off of. Since I don't have both at my house I can't just go look. Does anyone know off the top of their head if they are the same? Also are they the same over all the years? Or were the early 70's Gladiators different that the 80's Cherokees etc.? Thanks!

The very outer metal part is similar. As I recall the contour for the body lines on the back half are different.

The whole inside inner tub is 100% different.

Ok, I will see if I can get both flares off the J10. Hopefully they are both good. Thanks!
