Those are what I'm running, and you've seen my Jeep plenty. They fit like ish, but then again so do most glass fenders. Hanneman also makes a 3" flare, that looks about the same flare as mine, for $100 less.

[TwistedcaB]

yeah i've only seen em on yours haha. i might be needing a 6" flare for the front tho because of how much mine stick out but the back i dont like the look of the huge 6" flat tops. wouldnt mind a 3 or 4" tho

[DansGreyMj]

Here's a 4" inch flat top-

[TwistedcaB]

I've got "Trailer Products" (Ajax) flares on my rig. I didn't install them but the fit seems decent.

Hey slc, did you weld that tube to your axle centersection with all the internals in there? Or did you gut the axle first?

[slcpunk74]

Everything installed. I heard that was a safer way to do it.

POST NUMBER 1000!!!

[Mike1331]

great good to know, i've heard soo many mixed reviews but never stopped to ask someone who did it with the internals installed.

[slcpunk74]

Dont take my word for it but I would just figure it would have less chance to warp things. I have had no problems but then again I also did'nt pre heat the diff because I lost my torch.

[Mike1331]

oh okay that was going to be my second question. What size welder did you use to weld that tube to the centersection and C's?

[LastMJ]

That's a damn good lookin' MJ LastMJ...

Thanks Jim. I've got a lot of blood, sweat and beers in that thing! Well, not completely in just this one, I had built up a long bed before this, and swapped everything over.

[crazyjim]

Well kudo's to you. It makes me want to build an MJ

[slcpunk74]

oh okay that was going to be my second question. What size welder did you use to weld that tube to the centersection and C's?

Lincoln 180

[Mike1331]

ahh yes good welder that is. I'm guessing it made decent welds to the iron without having to preheat. I need to get me one a them.

Thats a funny pic of the sandy dunes and snow in the backround. I have to go over to Nevada to find situations like that.

[crazyjim]

I think the funniest part is that he's looking at the camera instead of where he's going to land :laugh:

[Mike1331]

Yeah thats funny too, its a creepy look though. Your mean muggen the shit out of that camera.

[slcpunk74]

Come on now you makin me sound like a dick. I was just letting the camera know that Im a bad A brosef.

[slcpunk74]

I dig it! So no rear doors? So you say mcniel has the ones for four doors? Are they two pieces so the doors still work?

[slcpunk74]

Hey runner can you get me a pic of the rear fenders as standing directly from the side? I wanna see how it looks as far as having a fender behind it.
Like a close up of this.(with no tree)

And maybe one showing one side from the back. like the op of this.

I'll try when I get my camera back. The doors are not gonna open as of now but eventually I'll make them open

Not to be a dick but I don't think a "long travel" Xj has ever been built (without slapping beams in it). A mild jeepspeed build would be mid-travel at very best.

XJRUNNER. Those 9" bulge flat tops I have with your name on it would be PERFECT for those rears. CLEAR your PM"S!!!!

I sent an e-mail to Glassworks recently to see if they had ever/could make rear fenders/bedsides to match their front fenders for the XJ/MJ. Soon after, I heard back from Tim Gerwatosky,president,that they could and would consider making them if 5 or more peaple were interested.Their website, www.glassworksunlimited.com (http://www.glassworksunlimited.com) ,has pics of the fronts,the E-mail is glassworksunlimited@yahoo.com .I have heard several peaple mention they are looking for an alternitive to the flattop style. So if anyone is thinkin' about them ,or knows someone who is send them an e-mail,:cheers:

[tone]

Id consider some rears to match my fronts if the price was right and the doors were still functional. But I would have to see how it looks before I commit to anything...

[Ryan93]

It be cool if they had something like this for the rear
http://www.race-dezert.com/cgi-bin/trader/atl.cgi?ct=7&md=second&id=5363

[tone]

Im all in if it looks like that, and if it kinda folded under itself in the wheel well you could bolt it in on the stock flare mounting holes on the body with rubber washers or something just do you wouldnt have to clean it out everytime you went and had a good time.

[Baja_XJ]

Im running hannemann flattops on all 4 corners and I couldnt be happier with the way it looks. Now I just have to get the rest of the stuff done to it that it needs. It gets alot of awkward looks though because it isnt every day that you see a Prerunner driving around in Indiana

i tracked down a set of slightly damaged hannemann fenders for $100, but sadly the shipping is $260....

Hell yea, I seen the plate earlier when I was looking through these forums, I didnt noticed we got a prerunner section until earlier today! Thanks naxja! If anyone else is interested I talked to McNeil Racing today and we talked about hood designs for Jeepspeed and we decided on a raised cowl with louvers on the sides, just like their Grand Cherokee hood but for the Cherokee. heres the Grand hood, http://www.mcneilracinginc.com/off-road-fiberglass/Jeep/GrandCherokee/1993-1998/index.htm, I get #1 but after that they are fair game, production is expected in around a month.

[tone]

Those rears look good, I wish they made them for the XJ like that but a little more boxier look to match the hannman fronts.

just FYI but jeepspeed 1700 does not allow cowl hoods and has strict limitations on how much material(rule is a total area)you can legally remove from the hood for cooling(i.e: vents etc.). Sounds cool though, look forward to seeing some installed!

4.1.1.12 Hood must be positioned in stock location, and nothing may protrude through it. Holes may be cut through the hood for increased cooling, but must not exceed a total of 36 square inches. Hood may be re-formed for additional engine bay clearance, but hood scoops and cowl induction are not permitted.

they make fiberglass bedsides, check rusty's offroad

Hannemannfiberglass.com is where I purchase my glass from...McNeil Racing has talked with the tech offical for Jeepspeed and he said that as long as its not a functional cowl or scoop it would be just fine and that louvers are fine as long as the rest of the racers are ok with them being there, if they disagree with the louvers then all that would have to be done is covering them up and it would pass

I know. But I want a 4 door version so the rear doors are still functional...

Are you running the fenders for the MJ or ZJ? Looking for something to slap in the rear of the heep.

They are the MJ bedsides, but they are pre notched for XJ B & C pillars also. I went alot further with my install than most do. I actually cut the stock bedside off and cut out the stock wheel tub and a good chuck of the floor and made my own wheel tubs 4' long, 2' tall and 16" wide.

But there are alot easier ways of doing it.

[justin_502]

Anyone ever run a set of rustys fiberglass fenders up front? How was the fit? I do a lot of rock climbing as well as go fast stuff, I dont know to get some bushwacker flares or just through on some fiberglass fenders?

[AirForce_XJ]

I had a set of Bushwackers on, Well, still kinda do, only on the rear. I ripped the front ones off to many times on tree's and/or rocks. They look good but arent very durable.

[Baja_XJ]

If you are looking for durability on the rocks or trails then fiberglass is deffinatly no the way tol go because the rears are 200 each and the fronts arnt much cheaper

[AirForce_XJ]

You are better off just trimming the fender then trying to roll it out for a little extra coverage. Will save you some bucks and you wont be so hurt in the wallet if a tree decides to bite you.

[slcpunk74]

Fwiw I was planning someday to do the rear fiberglass with the dzus 1/4 turn fasteners so when I wheel they can come off and stay in the garage. http://www.racebolts.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=723

[Baja_XJ]

I wanted to dzus mine on but since mine is my daily driver I had to have to water tight so that meant I couldnt use dzus

The only problem with that is when you remove your fenders, the fastener mounts are exposed, and you know damn well that the first tree or rock you see is going to come lookin' for that mount.
Gone in less than 60 seconds!

Ask me how I know.

You still can use fasteners. You just need to think about how to install them.
Look carefully on how you need them to seal.
In your case, the rear fibreglass would only be for looks. You couldn't cut up the body to use the extra clearance for more wheel travel.
But....
You wouldn't be the only person out there doing work on your rig strictly for looks. Most of the cool paint jobs we put on our rigs don't really survive too long.

[Baja_XJ]

I have the whole quarter panel hacked out...its not don e to just look good. I just havent gotten far enough into the build to do anything extreme with it because Im on a very tight budget.

If you took the interior panel out you can still seal it up regardless of how the fender is mounted........right? That is to say that when you build a new interior panel, you can make sure its sealed well.

[Baja_XJ]

Ok yeah I see what you are saying...I misunderstood what you were saying. Yeah your right. But it will be a couple of years (I hope) before these bedsides need replacing, at that time I will most likely dzus them on
