I have '93 xj base model 4 door .. I dont intentionally rock crawl .. but go thru deep snow / mud / some rocky areas .. hunting/fishing/camping/etc.. offroad to get to off grid places

2.5 or 3" lift .. not sure (bought it lifted w/ minimal info .. think Rancho lift .. replaced Rancho shocks w/ procomp hydraulic) .. stock flares .. backspaced wheels / tires meaty AT 31's



wheels stick out from stock flares .. spraying mud/slush/road debris all over windows / paint on sides

I'm looking at Rugged Ridge oversized flares, look stock but bigger ... quoted $215 w/ free ship

cannot find a photo of these mounted anywhere .. anyone?

I have ebay offer pending for $245 w/ free shipping

You want 4 of the wrangler rear flares,The fronts will work but look out of place on a xj.If you want something bigger http://www.napierprecisionproducts.com/ is made good and not too high of a price.

looked at YJ / cj flares in junkyard .. .. measured .. apparantly wrangler parts are in a private yard .. "do not remove parts before quote" .. sounded spendy

then checked stripped XJs to see what i was getting into .. vise versa

dont feel like cutting my ride .. no need for "super flex clearance"

i like the flat style fender flares .. may just drop a pretty penny on them

are there any that just mount to stock fenders?

seemed the wrangler flares mount flat .. but XJ has angled lip



in JY .. some sweet front offroad bumpers on wranglers available .. will they fit mine?

Napier has both flat flares and the cut out pocket style,The flat flares do take a tiny bit of cutting but its more of just cutting off the lip the stock flares bolt on.And no the wrangler bumpers won't work the mounts are way different and the bumpers are a good 5 inches shorter in width then the xjs bumpers.
