Description
Fends Off Stones and Trail Hazards. Protect your 1997-2006 Jeep Wrangler TJ’s Body Panels in addition to adding tire clearance by replacing your stock flares with a set of Barricade Fender Flares. These tough fender flares not only increase the clearance, but also protects your Wrangler’s paint and body panels from damage caused by brush, stones, and other trail hazards.
Tough Steel Construction. Built with a heavy-duty 3/16″ steel sheet and 2″ x 0.120″ steel tubing for strength and durability, these Barricade Fender Flares are completed in a two-stage finish using epoxy pre-coating and high-grade textured black powder coating for long-lasting corrosion resistance and a bold appearance perfect for riding the trails.
3 Options Available. Get these Barricade Fender Flares in 3 separate options. The options include 2 front fender flares, 2 rear fender flares or a combination of 2 front and 2 rear fender flares.
Easy Installation. This set of Barricade Fender Flares is simple and straightforward to install but will require some minor modification to factory fenders for proper installation.
Application. These Barricade Fender Flares are specifically designed for use on all 1997 to 2006 Jeep Wrangler TJ models. Includes front and rear. Intended for off-road use only.
So I bought these about a year ago, when they arrived they were already rusted inside the hollow tube. I was able to sandblast most of it off, but over time it’s gotten terrible. The upper mounting holes are all rusted out and cracking. The top has half the coating chipped off with rust underneath, same with the bottom. I have an 04 and somehow they have become the most rusted part on the car. Would not recommend buying
The install video makes it seem so easy but it’s not… customer service will only tell you to take it to a professional.
What the video does not tell you is, on an 06 TJ, the brace on the fender well to the firewall does not come off with the chunk. You have to cut it out.
After a million cuts, 6 meltdowns (literally), and a lot of bruises trying to bolt it down, I finally got them on and now the hood does not fit right. Another thing the install video does not tell you..
Also, the back fender flares, fit like a crop top shirt from online overseas shopping site. It’s not going to line up fully and and not sure yet if rock rail body armor will hide what it doesn’t.
It looks good! But, I wish I would have made a different purchase than this.
Install is pretty easy, would suggest getting fender washers for bolting up inner fenders. Washers that come with kit seen to be under sized and also remove clips for some bolts before trying to bolt up. Use nylock nuts that come in nut/bolt kit provided.
I love these. But the video online is terrible. It’s not informing at all. I had to figure it out myself
The Barricade choice of powder coat quickly began some rust flake which is understandable to an extent but rather annoying nonetheless. The look is excellent otherwise. Welds are ok. The rear cuts from the plate that mounts to the body is cut in a series of straights so not a perfect circle but it’s imperceptible to anyone other than the installer TBH. If you’re a clean lines guy this may not be for you.
