Is there any way to modify or make a fuel door(Rugged Ridge Locking) fit while running Bushwacker Fender flares(Pocket)? My wife got me the fuel door for Christmas so I wanna try my best to make it work.

 

Anyone have a solution?

 

Maybe its me but the fuel door shouldn't be anywhere near the flares. You have pics of the issue?

 

Notice in picture 1 the stock fuel well touches the fender. Photo 3 shows that the Fuel Door has 4 places for screws. These screws are supposed to be put into the stock plastic lip. However, I can't seem to get the fuel door to align enough to screw it in and still be able to lock the door.

 

Grind 1/8" off of the part that touches and touch up with paint. Only other option is to take a exacto knife and trim a notch in the flair

 

Remove most of the bolts/screws from the fender on the side of the fuel door. Install the fuel door and re-fasten the bolts. I have the same setup but I used better screws.

 

I'll have to try that.. Didn't really want to cut anything

 

man, those flares are HUGE!

 

Trim the ring and touch up the edge with paint. Make sure you cut it where the two will be flush with one another.
