Since I slammed my truck I been thinking about running them in front n cut the shit out of fenders behind to make more travel and clearance, Anyone do this as well? I dont mind the oem flares on the dually . Any pics?

I LOVE the look of the 4wd flares on a slammed truck! Im tucking tire with a static drop and had to cut the bajeebis out of the inner part of the top of my upper fenders. Works pretty well, cannot be seen from the outside, but Id still like to add the flares.

well I picked up a set of flares. Pain in the ass. I had to pull the fenders off drill holes bolt up. I decided to hack up under molding for more clearance.

I am 50/50 on them. Both ways look good.

Did you gain the clearance you needed?

Yea. The old fenders were rippled from the hack job before me.
So I figured I hack them up more to see if I wanted to run the flares.

I just need a good firm fender roll on the old ones but someone cut them n I couldn't get them to fold up the few centimeters they left me
Another issue is if u hit a dip with the wheel turned ur fender is mangled with the flare u can hide that

I considered these, but I have decided (Eventually not a Daily Driver)
to run shortened uppers and lowers. But I do like the 4wd flares. Do
you plan to paint them (or the whole truck) or just leave them as is?
