Default EAG Stubby Fenders

Today on the Jeep, we installed part number 51-0694 & 51-0695 which are stubby fender flares. We first started by laying out our fenders. *Notice the packaging will have an L or R for Left and Right side.

Once we have removed existing fenders (OEM/Aftermarket) start by placing the rivet nuts in the designated holes in the rear fenders and using the provided rivet nut insert tool, screw until rivet nut does not come loose. Repeat the process 4 times on each side. With the help of a friend have them hold up the fender and bolt on the bolts into the rivet nut and using the provided bolt and washer, place them through the center two holes and from the back side use the locking nut to tighten the fender.

For the front, remove your OEM/After market fender, place fender onto vehicle. Line up the fender holes with the holes in the vehicle. Place supplied bolts with flat washers through the hole in the fender and through the hole in the vehicle fender. Repeat the steps for the remaining bolts.

Do you have more installed pics? They do look better than the vast majority of the cookie cutter flares that -all- fail to follow the lines of the jk wheel arch. Example is the Poison Spyder- they made the flares flat where it was convenient and it tweaks the fender away from the grille when you start tightening it down. I don't know if fender money is in the cards right now but these would be on my list of considerations.

They look really good, thank you for the pictures. They'll go on the list and hopefully I don't break a factory one....what a shame it would be to upgrade.

I didn't see, what's the lift size you've got and 35's, right?


Edit: it looks like I'm finding the wrong flares on Amazon or the pictures are outdated. The style in the link are cookie cutter.

Thank you! And this Jeep does have 35s on a 3 inch lift.

You wont find the fenders as a pair just yet since they are new.

What size nutserta are you guys using? I went to checkout with these flares last night and was bouncing back and forth between the thread, Amazon, and my picture gallery trying to make the right choice when I noticed that the nutserts you're using aren't knurled like the other manufacturers. I also notice what looks to be a lack of RTV on them, you want that for rust protection, right?
