TJ flares on zook

[Mudzuki]

Trail tough ones are nice, but not for that amount of $$$.

[stumped]

$26 for 6m of garden edging from bunnings


ok, so it's not as bling as damo's... i'll go sit in the corner now

[DeWsE]

Well the problem is that I havr the same as yours already stumped but I am just looking at different options.

Doesn't look as though I will benifit from it at all coz they are only 4 inchs wide.

[bigsteve]

How far out will your tyres poke?? when they are mounted.

[DeWsE]

Really not to sure but they have a 6 inch dish in the rim then the extra rubber hanging out of them.

so what u doin wit urs dude? mine's WT, with -28 offset 15x8 rims, 31x10.5 bfg muds... with the WT flares plus 3-4" from the edging (it's 6" wide), there's almost an inch overhang past the rubber.

i mighta missed something... are u going wider rims/rubber/etc?

[DeWsE]

I bought the -28 rims and decided they didn't have enough offset so I had them flipped. I now have 2inch back spacing on an 8 inch rim and will be running 33 x 12.5 mtr's

I reckon they will look good with the panels trimmed to match If you have the extra width to use the whole flare that can only be a good thing too

But I voted Dewse is Grimace

At this point i've decided to just use the originals with rubber extention then change to something like the calmini one's later down the track.

I should put some pic's in the other thread so people will start to read it!

What other thread ????

[raqmup]

Well, I'm putting stock TJ flares on my build up... pics will follow in a few weeks on a build up thread so everyone can pick the crap out of my and joes work (needs to be said )
Here's what rears look like on an LJ on 35x13xr15 DTR's
The advantage of tj's are that they don't cost too much in thier stock form if u look in the 'right' places, they are robust & will take a good knock ('cept for the aussie front indicators- better with the mopar flush mount lenses- not gonna 'snot' 'em as quick on banks & shoulders...)
Best to mount them with nutcerts rather than screws- less suseptable to tearing 'em off and causing GBH to ur panels
Another kewl thing is they actuallly make ur 'visual' ride height taller!
All depends on your vision for the look of ur rig- each zook is an individual vision and at the end of the day, if the drivers is happy how the car looks and/or performs, on & off the road, who gives a shiate what anyone else thinks- in the nicest possible way

I voted your Gay, but the flairs are cool, 37s stuff nicely into them aswell so theres pleanty of room to grow,then u can run jeep diffs , but after i pick up the mogs.

[greg]

calmini flares are the bling dewse - check those out.

I'm on to it! The good news is that they just fit within the rubber extention.

When I say just fit i mean the only stick out about an inch

when your jeep grows up it can run toy diffs

the less jeep on my zook the better

And when your zook grows up it will run proportional size tires for those diffs. Maybe 37's or some thing

[jeep97tj]

2" OME lift, 1" body lift, 3.5" fender lift and bonnet cut, and a fully sick KN pod (couldnt fit the stock air box back in)

Dual OX lockers the biggest strongest badest locker money can buy, and u do pay for it.
WARN nickle alloy inner and outer axles, Warn hubs and OX unis

Runs 37 mtrs in the rocks in summer and 35et2 in the mud....in the winter

Thats about it
