Ripped fender flares?!?!

So yeah,

i just got back from a long day of wheeling at Uwharrie with a bunch of buddies, and the only thing i messed up was BOTH my rear fender flares!

So im debating on weither or not to get a shackle lift to prevent it again.

Im about to take the flares off all together!

Anyone have any pics of them off? or ripped off?

shackle lift will push the wheels forward....


like i've said before...i throw flares ALL THE DAMN TIME!! I only have them half way held on so that i don't eff up sheet metal when the tires hit the flares/bedsides.


I rock flareless in the summer...and winter. BUT recently...since i'm double lifted....i be rockin' flares in the winter for cops' sake.

if you get shackles you better get some traction bars so it won't push your axle forward
