Want a measurement of stock YJ fender flares pls.

[J.T.Woody]

Hi guys.

I am looking for a measurement of stock YJ fender flares so I can compare how much space I gained when I went to the TJ flares.

Simple:
FRONT:Take a tape measure and measure from the lip of the flare (right above the tires) and eyeball it level with the top of the fender.

REAR: Measure from the same lip and measure up to the bottom lip of the hardtop. Eyeball level is good enough.

Rear wheelwell opening: Just measure from the widest part of the flare (at the bottoms), across the wheel opening.

EDITED w/ my info:

Front flares now measure 3-3.25" from the lip to the top of the fender.

Rear flares measure 7.5" from the lip of the flare to the bottom lip of the hard-top.
Opening measures a full 36" across.


Gracias, mi amigos (hey, I need to practice my Spanish )

Why didn't you just measure the amount of steel you cut off when you put the TJ flares on silly!

Heh. Actually, the room is really gained because the flares are shaped much different...you should know that ;D

Anyway, a guy on Jeepforum.com measured for me...front measured out to 4.5" and the rear was 8" (I'm sure that is not right, but I don't know).

Stock opening at the bottom is a measly 28" across!
