Its the same as a four door; right?. I trimmed the frt fenders with a set of tin snips. The Bak I did the cut an fold method. On the rears sand off the paint on the lip of the fender before folding . This eliminates any chipping.

I used this as a start

There's a link to instructions for fitting their flairs. I just used their cutting measurements and went without flairs. It was the only directions I could find that had all of the measurements and said exactly where you have to fold the metal over.

You can trim more in the back. I think I gained about 2"+. I cut and folded to the pinch seam and was able to re-use my stock flares.

what did you do just raise the flare and remount it, you pics are to far to really tell

i did the cut and fold technique front and rear , the rear u can't go to far or you'll see the inside of the truck. then welding is involved . then for flares i found some 1/4 inch rubber belting and self tapped it on the under side to my already folded sheet metal worked awesome i havent had a problem yet and the rubber folds nicely around trees with no ripping of flares off !!

good luck
