looking at a 2001 cherokee with 7 inch lift and 33s has trimmed fenders front and rear, dont like the look of that also need fender flares to pass saftey. but dont really like the look of bushwackers, is there any way to remount the stock fender flares even thought the old holes are gone?

could try some molding tape....that was what i was gonna try till i messed up one of my stock flares

biggie

would the stock flair sitll line up to the cut fender? that is what i am wondering

I have seen numerous people use self tapping screws threw the flare into the fender. worked great

I have a 93 cherokee and was thinking of this as well.. due to the fact id rather not spend a arm and a leg on bushwhackers. Anyone have self experience or pictures on doing this? I assume i would probably have to trim the bottom of the fender flare where it wrapped under the truck and attached to the frame

I tried that and mine ripped right out... I'm gonna try double sided molding tape, there's a write up some chick did with it on naxja. So far it's worked out great.

strange... I wheel mine and hit trees with them and no issue at all.

Did you use fine thread self tappers? Cause I used coarse, yeah I know...dumb idea haha Coarse is for wood, fine is for steel.

jhosgood

Lol deff should have used fine.. much more for the metal to grab to much stronger hold

X2! Been thinking of trimming fenders but need flairs to be legal so haven't done it yet, no $$$ for after market flairs

offroadnut36

biggie

i dont think to many people do it. Probably because they dont like the old faded black flare on it. Im going to paint mine
