Nice job enjoyed to watch your method to overcome small problems

[@HardEarnedBacon]

Thanks!

Wish there was a company that made rear flares with the shape of the yj flare but the opening of the tj flare.

[@HardEarnedBacon]

That is a good idea

[@davidshettlesworth1442]

Thank you for an excellent video!

[@HardEarnedBacon]

Thanks for watching!

[@brianchristenson6055]

Thanks!

Looks good. .I like the look and I had thought of trying this but wasn't sure. But I don't want to cut my sheet metal.

[@HardEarnedBacon]

Yeah if my tub wasn't already hacked up I wouldn't have done them.

Nice work man I have the same heat gun very i pressed I beat the crap out of it. Painting, working with vinyl and carbon fiber. I use the butt connectors that have solder already in it and it heat shrinks at the same time. Couldn't do it as fast without that heat gun and the attachments

[@jackrussellville]

Think CJ rear fender flares look the best

[@VWLivin]

Great video. Would it not have been possible to use a heat gun to gently heat the bend on the front fender to match the existing curve of the sheet metal?

[@HardEarnedBacon]

I don't think the end result would look very good

[@larryalexander4833]

I've never did gears myself either so I'd appreciate info from your experience .

[@HardEarnedBacon]

I've been told the little book that comes with the gears is the best source of info when doing them yourself. We'll see.

[@dougekren6495]

I have these on my 90 YJ and I am running 35s .I didn't cut anything. I could run 37s

[@benholcomb497]

How much clearance at the back of the front fender did you gain?

[@HardEarnedBacon]

I should've measured but probably a couple inches including the metal cut.

[@TheShrewdServant]

I call em plastic grommets lol

[@HardEarnedBacon]

Doohickeys
