High Top fender flares

[tommygiggles]

So do these (82215742AC) come with the fender liners needed as well, or do those need to be ordered separately? Thanks

Did you ever get these to work 100%, no hyperflash or "out" warnings?

I'm not really concerned about the DRLs, but I want to ensure everything else works as intended post-dealer-flash.

Thanks!

those of you that have swapped out your fenders, where did you source more of the white clips? they tend to break during removal. i have to pull my front fenders off again and only have a few extra white fender clips left.

the round inner fender push pins, i found some at Lowes that work. 2 for 89 cents

So I have recently just went through all of this swapping out my new black textured flares for some painted ones. I had a lot of learnings. This job is fairly easy if you have done it before and have all the right parts. If not once you get through 1 side the other side goes about 3x faster. Make sure you get rivets and a rivet tool!

Speaking of... I still have my black textured rubi flares if someone is looking to upgrade to the high tops: https://www.jlwranglerforums.com/forum/threads/jlu-rubicon-fender-flairs-black-great-shape.43621/


Parts needed:

Required:
- Rubicon High Top Flares

Optional:
- Side marker lights. - You can reuse the ones you have no issues. However if you don't have these and want to upgrade to LEDs. You can take it to the next level and save money on the flares you buy by not buying them with LEDs and take the opportunity to do this American Adventure Lab LED W/ DRLs modification while you do the install. About the same price and they are amazing - https://americanadventurelab.com/product/jeep-jl-high-line-fender-brace-with-daytime-running-lights/
- High Top liners rubi or aftermarket - (Only needed if you have Sahara or Sport) OEM can be found for $50 a liner or you can get some really nice aftermarket ones as this is a great time to modify this area all at once.

Tools Needed (Parts I actually used):
Rivet Tool: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007QV2E50/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Rivets: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07D6JXC4Q/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Clips and Christmas Tree Plugs and Plug Tool Package - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07W3KKQBF/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
*This package is great, it comes with everything you need except the rivet tool. However I think you might need more rivets which is why I bought more. The plug popping tool that this comes with also is very useful.

To remove and install just watch this video -
Works the same way with rubi and non rubi fenders.

Hello. I found a set on Craigslist that has 3 of them but missing front right. Is there a part number for it to get it from the dealership directly? Just fron right I mean.

How much clearance did it give you over the original sport flares ?

It’s all 4. This is 35’s without lift. Waiting on a Tazer to program the LEDs to stop hyperflash and out warnings. But everything works. Super easy install.

Did you have any trouble lining the new high top flares up with the front and rear bumper? I can see the front looks good but can’t tell from the pic where the bumper meets the rear flare. ?

how much clearance did you get from original flare in the back and front ?
