    No they don't. Unless you've done some serious cutting.

    Do you know this for sure? I know a while back they were willing to make them to order but that was if we got at least 5 people in. I don't think it ever happened though. Here is the link.

    Oh ok! I look forward to seeing those. So you already have the All Pro front fenders?

    Oh nevermind. I see that you are going with GW up front too. I was talking about GW making the bedsides to match the flare and rise of the all pro fenders. Guess they still arent making those.

    Yeah I have the AllPro fenders they line up pretty good not perfect to the bumper but you can't tell unless you are on top of them. I'm going to go with the 6.5" fender but at the same time I'm swapping my plate bumper for tube. I like the look of the other fenders vs AllPro but they get the job done. They are also more expensive than the other brands. The brand AllPro uses is Trailer Products.

    thanks for the photos tostidos

    I had someone hit my front fender offroad so I am considering AP fenders. I got a quote for $1800 to replace the fender and repair my hood.... figure if I could get some AP fenders and a new hood visor to hide the hood dent it would work out way cheaper.

    I had already ordered a AP plate bumper before this happened so that should all match up.

    How bad do they look unpainted? My truck is super white? I'm guessing i will need some wheel spacers too :)

    Go flex the rear to full stuff with an aggressive 35 and watch it buckle your bed, chew off your stock fender flare and liner.

    If you're not contacting, then your rear end has lost flex somewhere along the line.

    Nice truck, BTW.

    Edit: I may be misinterpreting your posts - do you have stock bedsides or glass?

    The primer white looks pretty bad. I bet a spray can could make it look pretty decent if you don't want to spend the money. But they need to be drilled and trimmed too. Takes a bit of work. I had someone install and paint mine for 500. I have 1" spacers and before my long travel the truck looked great with the fenders. Now mine are too small

    I have zero issues at full stuff. I do not run fender flares but I am running the stock metal bed fenders/bedsides I was having issues until I moved the axle back 3/4-1" and now it stuffs fine with no contact.

    Only other modification to the rear bedside is I cut it for a high clearance bumper.

    My truck is used for trails/camping only and not my DD.

    Here is a pic as it sits. Don't have any with it flexed handy.

    If everything you say is true, now I'm just sitting here trying to figure out where you lost travel...maybe the axle relocation? Doesn't allow as much negative arch in the springs?

    No axle relocation blocks are like 1/4" thick. I don't see any big negative affect from them. The Dakar set I have is about 3.5" with an overload so they are not the most flexible spring set but I did this cause I load the bed up quite a bit when I wheel and camp - so perfect for my use.

    I think were thread jacking a bit. In the end my setup works perfect for me with 35's other than I need the front glass fenders. I have no fenders at the moment.

    That explains it - 3.5" of lift with another .25" of axle relocation plate.

    Interesting to know your results...like that you're running an odd duck setup compared to most.

    What rim size and back space are you running? Also what spring pack (rear)? Do you still have your fender flares on or did you take them off(rear)?

    That's a pretty wide tire and with that offset its probably not tucking under the fender when stuffed. Mine end up tucking under the fender with a 16x8 4.5BS with a 34.6" and 12.25 width on my rim. 315/75-16
