Sahara Fender Flare Extension SOLUTION

[gboll]

Hey 4xe fans! New here. I have a 2021 Sahara 4xe, and I really wanted the fender flare extensions. No where could I find a low rise fender solution. I tried an Amazon brand and they did not fit. I came across YOTTO Overland and saw they had a pair. I had bought a 2024 grill from them and loved it so I tried their flair extensions. Here are the results.

They Fit!

Xtreme Recon Fender Flare Extensions Set for Wrangler JL/JK Gladiator JT
Well, to an extent...

The rear fit with no problems and utilize the factory holes. There was a slight gap in the corner, but you'd have to look at it from a certain angle to see it, but from a few feet away, you can't tell. The front I had to drill two or three holes as the holes did not align. But the fender flair shape aligned well, so I didn't have to make any modifications to the fender flare extension. If there were any spots that need support I added a rivet and drilled a new hole.

Tools

1. Rivet Gun and Fastener Remover Amazon Link
2. Drill
3. 1/4in drill bit
4. Cloth
5. Tiny screwdriver
6. Hammer/mallet

(Yotto Overland Kit comes with rivets and 3 extra)

Install Steps

Good Vid to watch if you are lost. Recon Fender extensions

1. There is a small hole in the center of each rivet. Basically takes something that will fit in there and hammer out the pegs. Pegs fallout of the fender at the bottom.
2. Use the fastener removal tool or trim tools to remove the rivet. Repeat for each one.
3. I used a cloth to wipe the dirt off.
4. For the front the first top TWO or three will aline. The rest line em up and, drill, baby, drill!
5. Once installed you'll have parts of the rivets sticking out- snap them off with the Rivet tool or cut them with a blade for a clean appearance.

All and all if you have all the tools it should take you 30 minutes to an hour. Took me a bit more because I had to run to harbor freight a few times lol. They are a quality set and look OEM. If you have any questions please ask!
