    Ditto. Goes without saying. If Craig makes it, I probably want it.

    So modified stock flares that provide more clearance than non modified ones? Like enough to fit 35's?

    What would we exactly get for the price, Mr. Taco? We send you our flares and you hack them up or something and provide us with a walkthrough for cutting and fitting to our trucks?

    Have not worked any of that out yet Cody... :eek:
    I was just gauging interest in the flares...
    As far as a walkthrough, check out the earlier pages of this thread. ;)

    These new ones should be a bit easier to install considering they will retain the use of the stock fender clips.

    My bushwhackers needed a zillion holes drilled... :rolleyes:

    Haha alright I was just curious is all :p I really want to do the exact way you did it with the bushwhackers but I'm still nervous I'd mess it up and be screwed. I just want to have a bit more room for 35's is all. I've read through this thread several times already contemplating about whether I'm man enough to take this on myself.:eek:

    If you do, make sure you set aside A LOT of time...

    Each flare took about 3-4 hours... :goingcrazy:

    Oh...snap. Sounds like I'll have to wait for a sunny weekend and work on it then so I can ride my motorcycle if needed.

    Id like to do a similar thing, but just to make sure I understand, did you have to actually cut the actual metal of the outer "wheel-well" fender area of the truck; or will simply cutting like an inch off the flare itself serve the same purpose and give you and extra inch of clearance? (if that question even makes sense)

    even at only an inch,I believe you would have to modify the metal fender as well.

    Anthony's coming over next weekend so we can measure out where the stock flares need to be cut in proportion to his HC Rear and Plate Front... I don't want to just section them without having the proper measurements for his application.
