I everyone I have a 12 jkur with fab fours rocker guards. I always have mud and rocks make their way onto and into (with doors removed) my jeep. Could I build a fender flare that ran all the way to the step built onto their rocker guards? I disconnected my sway bar and ran my right front up a 3 foot bank leaving the left on flat ground then measured the gaps and the body flex hadn't changed the gaps. Would this work

Just run a set of soft 1/2 doors when you are in that kind of terrain.

I'm already looking into building a set of braced metal fenders and selling my bushwhackers( any takers haha), so if my idea works it will be an easy inclusion to the new fenders
