You could drive through some "too" narrow wooded trails, thats the way that the tj flares seem to come off the easiest and fastest.

:flipoff: I take too long to reply

hours? its just a few bolts

 

[RedRubiTJ]

There are a few bolts (smaller washer) on each flare that use a nutsert into the fender, just remove those. The others (larger washer) have a rectangular piece of plastic that acts like a nut. Just grab onto the back with pliers or you finger and they are pretty easy. In the rear you have to partially remove the plastic wheel wells first (mine are gone).

It's not. I think people have problems because they don't grab the backs and the screws just spin otherwise.

 

[JeepGuyLJ]

Ill try that, now i just have to wait till my new flares come in.

 

[AzTJ]

flares? Did you get the pocket style?

 

[upinar]

this is hilarious, its such a simple process to remove them and yet everyone hates doing it as well as me, ide rather replace a broken shaft then remove my flares. its only hard cause i cant fit my air ratchet or a normal ratchet in there!

 

[JeepGuyLJ]

Hey thanks Rebrubi I tryed taking them off like you said, i didnt keep time but i think it took seven minutes for one flare here is a pic. Az i just got factory replacements.

... why not just repaint them than replace them... unless you tore something.

 

[JeepGuyLJ]

I did forever black and i didnt like the out come so i just decided to buy new flares.

 

[AzTJ]

forever black is also known as "Forever Re-Apply" - Krylon Fusion is the only answer

 

[JeepGuyLJ]

Ill put the new flares on then when they kind of fade i will do krylon fusion, i know its $156 i didnt have to spend but i learned my lesson.

 

[tiny terror]
