I was somewhat joking. I'll get them on, no worries.

I am a confident virgin when it comes to installing fiberglass fenders. Lol

So any tips would be greatly appreciated.

 

If you have an angle grinder, dont be afraid to use it. Check 3 times before you drill your bolt holes. Make sure everything is aligned before you drill all your holes

 

Make sure to check your door gaps open and closed. As well as hood. Took me a few adjustments for mine.

 

Duly noted. Thanks for the advice. I'll definitely take my time with it.

@DannyBFresco she's about 12 inches wider. #girthy

 

DTF kit.

Thought about it, if i go wider it'll be the Solo Race kit, for 19" of 4x4 travel. Its been a couples years of asking DTF for a 4x4 anything, doesn't look like its gonna happen.

 

Don't threaten @2015whitetaco with a good time

 

bring them we can do a campsite install

 

If I decide I can't do them myself. I'll take you up on that offer. Lol.

Yeah, I've seen a number of people waiting/ requesting a 4x4 kit.

 

Indeed.

 

They no go on so well guys..

Any experience with glasswork fenders

 

Whats the problem?

 

I'll post a pic with an explanation of my problem in a hour or so. I'm at work, so I'm working on my pickup between Actual work. Lol my bosses are so kind to me.

In short, it seems like I'll have to cut off a pretty good sized section of the fender for it to fit properly. Was surprised by how bad it initially lines up.

 

yeah post pics on all angles. Sometimes you've got one thing misaligned and it makes everything else off and looks like you have to cut a bunch

 

So the back piece along the cab you're gonna have to push down, it always kind of pops out. If it impedes the door at all, take your grinder to it until the door swings freely. These things are NEVER perfect, sometimes you luck out and they pop right in with minimal grinding, other times you need alot more grinding to get everything to line up.

 

That lip, that would sit under the hood(specifically up towards the headlight) seems to be too tall. ? Preventing from lining up the the bottom of the door.

 

I have one at the ready, wanted to ask before I commit

 

Less cutting and more grinding. A grind wheel or flapper wheel is better, just grind a small piece, try to fit again. Try to keep the lines smooth. Especially around the light, you wanna try to keep the curve of the light along the glass otherwise you'll get gaps. The lights fit super tight around the glass as it is, so go easy around there.
