We wanted a fender that would not crack when smashed into a tree or rock, a fender that was strong yet looked good. What we came up with is a bolt-on tube fender that is a direct replacement to the stock fenders.

We are going to sell it with a few options to help keep prices low, they will start at $325 for the bare tube fender set without any filler pieces or weld tabs between the tubes, this is great if you want to put your own sheet metal in and save some money.

They are also going to be available with aluminum inserts or plastic inserts, we are still waiting on pricing for those two options.

The fenders will be online for purchase in the bare model later today on our website.
 
What are the specs on the tubing? How do they mount? The stock mounting can barely handle the weight of the stock fenders:). Cool idea if you figured that out, got any unmounted pics? Cheers

They are made from 1.5" .120 HREW tube, they bolt to the stock mounts and we are working on a unibody tie in along with a crossbar that will connect both fenders together over the engine.

Hm, interesting approach.

Will the proposed crossbar be able to be used with stock fenders? Depending on how it mounts, I'm thinking it could be analogous to a strut brace and useful for reducing unibody flex.

Very interested in what you come up with. Thanks for offering the XJ crowd more options. Sounds like I have to work more overtime to pay for future mods. :D
 
this is interesting. just wondering whats the specs on the demo jeep? mainly tire size and lift?

Something that resembles the JCR style quarter/fender armor that incorporates a bushwacker style flat flare, as a single unit would be cool......but then again, so would being able to fly.

We got some ideas we are working on.
 
Do they stick out any further than a stock fender and flare? What do they weigh? Do you have any additional pics of mounting points, or install pics?
