question here, how well is bedliner at preventing rust. I figured since im gonna have to paint my header panel and new fender, and possibly hood also, and im gonna have to sand anyways, i might as well go crazy sand down below the molding and bedline it. Also what year wrangler flares fit an 01 xj without cutting. I might upgrade those to allow more clearance

what us later year XJs can do is change out our 2 slot units, install a 1 slot unit and use the second slot blank plate as a new switch panel and accessory spot
