Who it is for
For a JL or JLU owner fitting larger tyres who wants the rear of the car covered as well as the front, with a flare that survives contact with rock and branches. The front flares are a separate item, TXSKJL 047. If you need the added width for your registration document, write to us and we will ask the supplier.
Fitting and notes
The manufacturer states no type approval for these flares. It also does not say how much width they add, and that is the figure an inspector will ask for, since a change in vehicle width is a change to the technical data. The manufacturer does not describe the fitting procedure, does not say whether drilling is needed, and does not explain how the fuel filler cut-out on the driver side is handled. The fitting kit with all bolts is included. The 30 kg figure on the listing is shipping weight, not the weight of the set. We can fit them in our workshop.
Why it is worth it
- Steel where a plastic flare cracks on first contact.
- A full rear axle set with the bolts - nothing extra to buy.
- Black structured finish with corrosion protection.
