UTAH (and Surrounding Areas) BS Thread

Lucky for you boys… UT is 64.9% public land. So go hit some lower elevation trails that are all around you.

 

Idc about trails, I like going where the game is.

 

Ah

 

WOW! Stunning.

 

Put your boots on haha!

 

They’re never off

 

Has anyone removed or replaced their fender flare? I have one that got tweaked and I want to replace it. There appears to be a gasket associated with it, so i assume a new gasket would be a good purchase, and is it relatively easy to remove the old gasket? Are there any retaining clips I should worry about?

 

I did on my old 1st gen. Most of the clips broke so I bought new ones, still have a bunch of extras if you need. The gasket will probably stretch and get ruined if you tug it out but can be reused if you get the flare off first.

 

All I can see are several presumably 10mm bolts to remove. Then figure out how to remove the gasket. I'm not sure where the clips are? Unless they have to be removed after the 10mm bolts.

I'll search around YouTube and see what it has.

 

Bitchin pic!! That’d be one to frame for the garage if it were me. Real nice!!

 

If you haven’t found a place to stay in Zion yet than we always stay at Cliffrose lodge and eat downtown at a little cafe in the middle of town that ofcourse I forgot the name of but you can’t miss it since it’s the only one there HA HA and they have EXCELLENT Bumbleberry pie!!

 

I trimmed my fender sheetmetal back 2.5 inches or so and in turn did same to flares. The plastic tabs mostly broke, so I looked at others on TW and installed bolts, nuts and washers in the place of plastic clipz.

 

Inside and out of flare with new fasteners that attach with nuts on sheetmetal fender. Stock are fake bolts and flares held on by plastic clips.Gasket is attached to flare stock and has stayed attached

 

So, you left the original gasket on? It looks like you put some kind of edge trim on their?

 

Original seal/gasket on side that mates to fender and wrap around seal on other side because I cut 2 or so inches shorter

 

Thanks! I am deathly afraid of heights. So I wasn’t getting any closer haha

 

Selling some icon delta joints UCA’s if anyone is interested. Threw em up on ksl

 

Would you guys have any reservations about getting a second gen at 211k miles? Looks like it has been taken care of and has cbi front and rear bumpers and ome suspension. I know these motors are pretty bullet proof.

 

I would examine it, drive it and examine it again. I would also have 1 or 2 mechanic take a look at it and provide their expertise opinion and evaluation as well.
