Rugged Ridge Extended 7 in. Wide Fender Flare Kit, 4-Piece for Jeep CJ 1955-86 - FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS: - The rear 7 in. extended fender flares I purchased for my CJ/YJ (wrangler) do not match the existing mounting holes. Did I get the wrong kit? - The CJ's and YJ wrangler 7" fender flare kits both use the modern TJ rear flare. This rear extended flare allows for more room for taller and wider tires. A slight amount of trimming will be necessary to provide for a proper fit. A cardboard pattern, per the installation instructions, should be place on your Jeep to mark were you will need to cut. When positioned correctly only the rear half of the wheel opening will need to be enlarged. If instructions are not available please contact the retailer you purchased your kit for a new copy. - What material are your fender flares made of, and do they have UV protection? - All of our fender flares are made of a plastic material called TPR (Thermoplastic rubber) and are UV protected. This is the same material that most front plastic bumpers are made of for good impact resistance. - What makes my Sahara different from other Jeep models when installing fender flares? - The up-scale Sahara model Jeeps come from the factory with additional body molding along the side of the Jeep between the front and rear flares. Extra mounting holes were drilled at the factory for the mounting of this molding. If removed, these holes will be exposed. For this reason our replacement flares and our 7 in. extended flares are not an OE replacement. You can still use these products for your Sahara, but additional work will be required. - Ships in two boxes.
Features:
These flares use a TJ Wrangler style rear flare enabling it to cover a larger wheel opening. This feature also makes it possible to cut the wheel housings to accept a larger size tire.
