How to install

  2. Remove the factory flares and keep the hardware handy in case you need it.
  3. Clean the body where the new flares will sit.
  4. Hold each steel flare in place and line up the holes before tightening anything.
  5. Start every screw by hand, then snug them down evenly.
  6. Cycle the steering lock to lock and check tire clearance at each corner.

About bigger tires

The listing pairs larger tires with lift: 33-inch tires with about 2.5 to 3.5 inches of lift, and 35-inch tires with about 3.5 to 4.5 inches, where some trimming may be needed. Clearance depends on your lift, wheels and backspacing, so check yours at full flex. Tire coverage rules vary by state.

FAQ

Will these fit a 1996 Wrangler?

No model year 1996 Wrangler was built for the US market; Jeep went straight from the YJ to the 1997 TJ. The set covers the 1987–1995 YJ and 1997–2006 TJ.

Do I need to drill?

The listing does not say drilling is required, and mounting screws are included. Line up each flare with your existing holes first. Call us if your holes do not line up.

Are all four flares included?

Yes. The set has four flares: the front pair and the rear pair for the driver and passenger sides, along with the mounting screws you need to put them on.

Can I run 35-inch tires with these?

The listing suggests 35s with about 3.5 to 4.5 inches of lift and notes some trimming may be needed. Your result depends on your lift, wheels and backspacing.
