Default New Member Broward Needs Help

Hello everyone, I'm new here and was looking around to fit some Bushwacker flares on my rig but didn't realize the work that needs to be done, called a few places around where I live but they don't do installs and don't want to have to go to a dealer for this, if anyone wants or can help me with this, would be greatly appreciated, don't have any tools that's the main reason I can't atttempt to this on my own. I live in the Miramar/Pines area.
Thank You in advance.

I installed them over the holidays. Regular ratchet set, and a grinder wheel. I just watched a YouTube video on the Bushwacker install and did it. Took me a whole Saturday though. I would help you but I live in Sumter, SC

What are you having trouble with on the install. I did mine in about two hours. Maybe I can assist?

Here is a link.

I'm in Miramar but I'm heading out of town for a month or else I'd help. I will say though that it's not a bad job. One side goes quicker than the other once you know the in's and out's. To be honest though, even with 37's, I wish I had my factory color matched flares still...the flats leave sooo much space but it does help when wheeling.
