Stock Fender Flares

What year XJ? The new style don't work quite the same way as the old style.
 
there is a flat plate/bracket that bolts thru the fender and it "sandwiches" the flare as you tighten it down.. i think its actually 2 seperate brackets.. at least on the front it is.. take off the nuts on the inside of the fender and it will come lose.. be careful because the studs like to break..

look familiar??

Spray the nuts with PB Blaster or WD 40 for a couple of days. I took mine off by a 1/4 turn forward and a 1/4 turn back and then a 1/2 turn forward and a 1/4 turn back. (if you get the picture) So - on and so on - slow and easy. If you just unscrew you stand a chance of breaking the bolts off. :wave:
