Ok so my rear left fender flare came off.... Any tricks to getting it back on??

 

It's 9 bolts and metal railing that are between your fender and your body. Three to a piece.
The whole thing came off?

 

Unbolt the mount, snap it back into the plastic flare, rebolt.

After you take the mount off, you should see these holes:



Bolts right back in. I know this is the front, but the rear are literally the exact same with the exception of shape.

 

Not the whole thing the black railing with the tabs is still there, I wana take em all off to paint black but Im too afraid they won't go back on lol

 

Early models and late models are different.

 

X2 and nice V-5's!!

But yeah the models are different

 

Mine is a 99

 

Then yours are like this.

 

A little 9mm socket is all you should need.

 

Use zip ties, when you are on the trail and a flare gets caught on a tree the zip ties will break and let go of the flare. Doesn't rip anything out actually thats my I lost all the bolts to mine over time and zip ties were there and easy to install

 

Just take them of completely

Mine are 10mm and the screws were 8

 

10mm and they will all break.



Just redid mine, if I were you just break em off, clean up the metal mount then tack weld new bolts to it and re-mount, grease them up when it goes back together.

 

I just did without the metal brackets and use regular old bolts/fender washes works fine for me
