    i believe those are part of what's called the arctic kit or something along those lines. a company in iceland makes them (i think) one of the members on here has them, i forget who though.

    Those look like Bushwacker fender flares. Look at the scroll on the bottom of this screen.

    Exactly this. Call Arctic Trucks and ask them. They're probably the manufacturers of the flares. Also, expect to have to cut sheet metal to fit 'em as they're designed to clear 38" tires.

    Yeah they arent Bushwackers for sure. I was thinking about getting the Bushwackers but for the price of them, plus the price to color match them just didnt seem worth it to me. But they sure do look good though on the trucks that have them!;)

    Just out of curiosity, does anyone know what the icelanders do with the body mounts? A little gentle trimming isn't going to allow those monster donuts to clear. Do they completely relocate the mount or what?

    They completely move the front suspension forward. These are not cheap or lightly modified trucks.

    These are "If you have to ask the price, you can't afford it" type modifications.
