tj flares on my xj
i have a set of tj flares and want to install them on my 96 xj. i have looked at pics and like the look of them.
i live in Australia, and i havnt seen the tj flares around much, i was wondering if there was a good and easy write up some where, i have seen a few but, is there a very simple one for dummies?
i also want to know the best and easiest way to mount the rear flares, half on the door like a bush whacker?? or just behind the door and cut the flare to fit??
thanks

i didth em on my cherokee, like the way they came out! first there cheap 100 bucks for all 4 from crown second it was pretty easy to make them work u will have to trim some material of the back side of the flares because they wrap under the tj fender and also will have to notch them for he body line on the cherokee. my fenders r cut quite a bit so it kinda looks like they belong there as far as the rear door i test fit them to the vehicle where i wanted them to sit and just cut them at the door seam so is like a bushwacker really not much to it just take your time because the plastic cuts like **** and its easy to f up

thanks alot jeeptech
did you use 4 rear flares, or a set of tj flares??
how exactly did you attach to the rear and the door?? there is no space to bolt. screw maybe?? or maybe silcone them on so if they get hit it will fall off and not damage anything??
thanks!!

Hi Mate, I also have just got a 96 XJ and a mate has given me a set of TJ Flares so I will be looking to see how other's have fitted them as well. I'm a Kiwi so its good to see you guys across the ditch on here as well, Hope we can help each other with the flare fitting and other mod's
Cheers Leon.
