Fender Flare fitment

Hey guys I've got a '96 model that I'm looking to put some fender flares on. I'm wondering if the smooth style flares (no body lines) that came on some of the 2001 and newer models will fit the '93-'97 models? From the research I've done I think that they will but I have not found a direct answer to it. Apparently, when ordering fender flares from bushwhackwer, the part numbers are the same on the flares for '93-'97 and '98-newer models. I don't remember where I saw that but someone pointed that out in a post somewhere. If this is true then I don't see why those "smooth" style factory flares wouldn't fit the '93-'97 models. Can anyone either confirm or deny this?

I have a bed from a '96 Ranger on my 2003 Frame and the rear flares, although not installed yet, will fit !
Sorry can't say about the front !

Awesome, thanks! Well, that answers half of the question lol. I know the front fenders are different on the '01-newer models because of the head lights but it doesn't look like the area that the flare attaches to is any different but that's just a guess. If what I read about the bushwhackwer flares being the same part number for '93 and newer models they should work fine...it just makes me wonder because I haven't been able to find anyone with a '93-'97 Ranger with these flares on them and I know I can't be the only person that's wanted to do it.

jt86tn,

How's this going, any progress in what fits what.

Once you determine if there are major differences, make sure to post it on one of the Forums for future reference.

Good Luck,

Ltr

Haven't done anything yet. I'm still looking for a good deal on some flares but I will definitely let you all know when I get some and find out if they fit or not.
