Thanks for the vid, I knocked a flare loose and this is exactly what I needed. Running 33"s with no lift and fully flexed the rear tire came up and bit my rear flare. No one to blame but myself! Thanks again.
This Spring, I am mounting 33's but I am going to put a 2.5 Teraflex suspension lift on it. I am just scraping the money together right now. Thanks for the kind words.
Cheer mate, Great video. Really loved your sons contribution at the end. Glad you left it in. I was for some stupid reason standing on mine to reach a Kayak strap and it broke off. Plan to reattach it today now that I have the clips. Well done on the tutorial and easy to follow instructions. Subbed.
Thank you so much for creating this video. To make a long story short, A few months ago a deer ran into the side of my jeep and broke two of the plastic clips holding my fender together... I replaced the clips but little did I know that the remaining clips were broken as well. Fast forward to a few days ago, I was on the freeway and my rear rent fender flare fell off, along with my liner. I refused to get this taken care of at the dealership since they would charge me an arm and a leg, so I purchased the fender flare, and watching your video definitely taught me what to do and what tools and pieces I will need to completely fix it myself. I will let you know how it turns out after I order another fender liner. Thanks for the video!
Thank you very much!!! I was about to remove all inside my Jeep looking for the metal screws or clips!!! Actually I did´n know how to fix it until now!!!!! So the video was surprisingly helpful !!!
Hey big thanks, I just had my Yellow Jeep Wrangler painted a cool deep deep purple, I took everything off to save money at paint shop, broke 20 clips removing, so now I am ready to re install today, very helpful, yes I ordered the clips on line, am in Canada was only place I could find, jeep wanted 64 bucks for package of 8, speaking rectangle clips, Amazondotca had bag of 25 , well with shipping was 20 bucks
Jeep Australia wanted A$10 each clip: 11 x $10 = A$110. I ordered from your Amazon link above -- saved me $90 incl. postage to Sydney. Thanks for this! Good man.
Press the "Christmas Tree" plugs in using a short screwdriver handle as a pushing tool, or use a deep-well socket of the correct size and tap on that with a tack hammer. Usually the last ones stick because of a slight misalignment between the plastic hole and the steel one, so shoving the plastic liner around some will usually help with this, too.
Hey, what ya take a vacation from videos ? I find myself back looking at JeeP Rubicons, and Shhh Tacomas. lol. Love having the BED space...... But a JEEP just looks way cool........though Tacomas are not to shabby. Well. Keep them videos coming.........Have a safe off road winter.
Thanks so much for the video and the links to get the parts on Amazon. I had to take my fender off (which is easy) but it doesn't want to go back on, especially with the clips that broke when it came off. Amazon Prime, and it'll be back on this weekend. Awesome!
Is there a trick to getting the clips on the flare to fully engage through the body? When I tried, a few (more than half) would not penetrate through the hole in the body to fully engage. Seems the lip on the flare is not stiff enough to force the clip into the hole.
Can you tell me if any adjustments were made to the rivet tool before using with these nylon/plastic rivets you refer to in your video, because I wrote down everything verbatim and the tool right out of the box does not seem to be the fit for this size rivet. Help please.
Great video, thank-you. I actually prefer not to fake the video cause it shows the level of difficulty, as opposed to Hollywood. Tell your son to expect that life is usually more difficult than what you see on TV or RU-vid....it's a good life lesson. Cheers.
So the clips for the liner are no good after you've removed them? I dented my fender flare so I removed it and took the liner off to fix the dent. Now to get those clips back in there is next to impopsicle
Wildernessways thank you for replying I really appreciate it. Is your riveter for plastic rivets specifically? I can only seem to find riveters for steel or aluminum around here.
ThePols87 The riveter is for any type of rivet. It is just the size that matters, you need to make sure that the riveter will accommodate the size rivet you will be using, most standard rivet guns are too small.
Now all You need too do is hit something with one of the Fronts and follow up on installing the Front Flair, then Your Tutorial would be complete! Just being a smart ass... Great Video! ;)
Good of you to make a video. I had a hard time getting a real handle on the three different fasteners I needed. After a bit of research I found everything at clipsandfasteners.com. Super easy and I was able to use the extras for misc around the JK.
