I hate how small it makes my 31's look though. Definitely going to have to go 33's soon.

I'm not familiar with the hooliagan flares. After the pain in the *** it was for me to install them and their cost, I would 100% just cut and fold the fenders if I could do it over again instead of the bushwackers.

That will never be an option for me. Unfortunately, PA is a fender flare **** state. You can't take them off, flares must be no wider than 3", flares must cover the tire, yada yada yada.

That sucks...Probably better that way though.

Just looked the hooligans up. They do look pretty nice, but even more pricey than the BW's. The design reminds me of the Rusty's flares.

yea they are nice, I have the funds save up to buy all four. But i will only invest in the two front fenders first. That way I have some funds left over to spend on some other mods. Probably get the rears in the spring.

Noice. I have almost a grand worth of ruff stuff goodies sitting around for over a year. Need to dedicate a week off so I can bang it all out.

I feel you. If it wasnt for my friend helping me out, it probably would have sat for a year too. Ruffstuff wanted $249 shipped, and I got mine from ballistic for $179 out the door. So less than a hundred difference but I didn't have to wait for shipping

There is something wrong with my OBDII port or the wiring or something and my BT adapter will hiccup. Torque just stops receiving data after a minute or two. Other apps gracefully recover and reconnect to the adapter, but torque does not--and I don't like those other apps nearly as much as I like torque.

that sucks, I haven't used torque on my XJ. But I have used it on my F150 I used to have. Worked really well.

Yesterday afternoon I was driving my Wrangler back from Ohio. This lady merged into my lane when there was nobody else within 1000ft of us. Just put on her turn signal and sideswiped my YJ...

Her car rubbed against my tires, and she almost went over the bridge when she panicked. Didn't leave a mark on my Jeep, but it really ****ed up the side of her car

You should seriously consider not driving to or from Ohio anymore. You've had some issues with that trip.
Did you guys stop and exchange insurance info?
