Fender Flares

[okefenokeefzj80]

As of right now I still have fender flares on my 94 fzj80 (what's left of them anyway) and was wondering how i would tighten up the rear ones on the rear doors. Any knowledge or ideas?

Thanks in advance!

Since you asking how to tighten them up I am assuming they are loose.
Can you give somemore detail?
Is it the seal that is ripped up?

I'll try to describe this better. I can visibly see that they are not sealed up against the door, but at the same time the bolt (i can only see one) is tightened all the way. It is only about a quarter inch gap between the door and seal and i can move it back and forth in the small space quite easily. Just wanted to see if there was some way to bring it back flush to the door.

One more thing...the seal is not ripped. It is in good condition, but it's not doing its job since the flare isn't flush with the door.

Pretty simple procedure. Place your left foot up against the door. Then grip the flare with both hands and pull as hard as you can. Repeat at the other three corners. Done.

I have actually been thinking about that. I kinda dig the rhino lining look on the flares that I've seen lately.

I see it every day.

Oh, and this one.

Got talked into wheeling at Windrock before I replaced the flares with sliders (which were on the way).

Looks great!!! What did you use to cover the holes? Was it an easy process?

 

[Kaderabek]

Simple process. I took it to WNC Rhino Line, dropped it off and came back a day later. Money exchanged hands and we were done.

They used plugs for the holes prior to lining it.
