Default Installation ORF Qtr Guards complete

Just installed these this past weekend. They are petty straight forward, with 2 people the allingment before drilling was easy.

Toughest part was on the drivers side getting to the bolts on the very bottom. I decided to drill a hole in the body to get to the last bolt. Plugged it and applied some atv.

A few pics.

The before look



Removing the rear interior for access to bolts and nuts.



The drivers side. Cluttered with the fuel tank filler tube and other wires. The passenger side is NOT cluttered. I suggest doing the drivers side 1st, then the passenger side.



Here is the hole I drilled to get to the bottom bolt



Here is the hole plugged with some atv on it.



Here is one side mounted without the flare. If you are running stock flares pic below on how to trim to fit.



After measuring the thickness of the guard then mark off the same on flare to trim off. The flare will fit flush on body.



Basically half the flare needs a little trimmed off. Also, in order to get to one of the bolt heads a little needs to be taking off in a half moon shape.



Here is the completed pics. Just need to paint over the chrome bolt heads.







Like before, pretty easy and straight forward and a 2 person job.
