Good video. Thanks for sharing. I just got the gen 2 armor fenders I'm going to be installing soon. Hopefully they will look as good as yours. What's the back spacing and offset on your wheels? And what size lift and tires? Great looking jeep!
@Bent_bars on my 2011 Jeep Wrangler , I have aftermarket hood locking latches from Rugged Ridge. When I got these smittybilt fenders, I had to measure and dreamel on the fenders where you install the latches because the Rugged ridge latches are too fat to fit on smittybilt fenders But I wanted to keep the same latches, so I had to do some custom work, which it paid off at the end.
Just bought these on ebay 600 for all 4 sets.. Hopefully they're not illegal in Missouri and Arkansas. Did you say you didn't use nutserts ?.. how'd you fasten them .. and is the cal not spot welded to the fender?.. appreciate any info.
Fenders are spot welded yes I used nutserts the center cowl comes off with the 4 screws and push pins in the middle in the screen 2 bolts under the cowl to remove fenders
I still have them on mine If you have them on now you will have to buy 2 front fenders not just flares The rear just take off install flares front is a bit more complicated

Question for the rear fenders you said you didn't use the nutserts, but did you just put nuts on the back of the screws then to hold them?
I used 2 nutserts on the sides then you can take taillights out after you drill holes in the rear and use regular nuts on them
@@Bent_bars Thank you
