I have had a brand new set of Bushwacker fender flares sitting in my garage for almost 2 years and I can't make the step to put all those holes in the body. It's like getting a tatoo, ya know? A local XJer told me that his XJ has started to sag in the back because he weakened it by cutting for the fender flares.
Granted, his is a 1993 XJ and it has been driven about as hard offroad as any XJ I know of, but is this a potential problem with the rear fenders that I should be concerned about? My XJ sees a lot of off road time on the rocks with a lot of twisting action going on. I just figured that as long as I didn't cut too far into the rear that this had no effect on the strength of the rear. Let me hear your thoughts.
