Nice, how tall of a tire will work for the rear laid out? & will it work for trucks as well?

These are going to happen. I was at his shop this weekend and he had 2 sets there. He is waiting on the boxes. He had to get boxes made to fit the wheelwells. Curt will be on here soon.

I have to clarify to the first 10 sets, they are the front wheel wells not a complete front and rear combo. Sorry for any confusion.

Can you please post some detailed pics.
Very interested.

Front wheel wells bolt in from the bottom like the originals. The fender has to be cut up raise them for tire clearance. Hood hinges will be removed and need to install cowl mounted ones. There is no welding with the front install.

Rochlow · 04-04-2012, 09:22 PM

interested in the rears and how they mount to the box.

The rears bolt up from the bottom to the quarter panel. A piece should be fabricated and welded in. The rest of the bolts are like stock. The rear wheel wells have been widened to fit a wider rear tire. The fiber glass can be trimmed to keep stock wide very easily. Check out the picture

gringoloco · 04-04-2012, 11:10 PM

Curious on the fronts, too. Looks like stock style upper mounting- do you section the inside of the fender? Also, do they bolt to the core support and cab?

The new wheel wells are don't use the upper mounts to the fender. A person could simply add tabs to use the recesses like the stock ones this (step would require welding) To solve this problem a rubber gasket is supplied. the new wheel wells are much stronger. They still bolt in like the stock wells to the rad support, cowl, along with around the wheel opening.

m6z · 04-05-2012, 04:38 PM

So are the production peices in white or black gel coat?

The production wheel wells are a grey gel coat. These wheel wells black or grey should be painted after you have fitted them.
