Looking forward to seeing what's next! I agree, and when I dont have a chance to check the thread, but see a bunch of notifications in my email I get super giddy, especially if it says "bob3 has replied to misinformation" :D Quote Link to comment
Bob3 Posted April 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Flares came! I need to cover 3.25" of tire. I ordered 3.5" flares. What do you think? Quote Link to comment
DatWifey Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 uh oh! flares just don't seem to be your thing with this project. :mellow: Quote Link to comment

Ratwagon1600 Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Oh shit, I wish I hadn't looked at this thread! My goon is going into the shed in a couple of weeks so I can start on the independent rear end conversion and half roll cage build. I now have a heap of other modification ideas thanks to Bob. BTW, very nice work! Quote Link to comment
metalmonkey47 Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Bob where did those flares come from?? Quote Link to comment
XXL Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 From the "common sense" world, I'd say that's definitely misinformation. What does the vendor say about sizing? I did a quick peek at Bushwacker (because they're huge), and didn't see anything on HOW TO size your flares. Maybe (???) you're supposed to order width + nn units for a given actual width. The "common sense" in me would have thought a 3.5" flare would cover up to 3.5" of exposed tire. I dunno... but you definitely need bigger than what you got with the wheel/tire combo you're running. :( Quote Link to comment
RedBanner Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Damn, yeah id say those are 2.25 wide. Quote Link to comment
wayno Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 :( :crying: I guess the project gods think this kind of project is supposed to take longer than your timeline, and they have decided you are not getting your flairs without a lot of stress and effort, can the flair people overnite the proper size? Do they have the proper size? Quote Link to comment
goes2fast Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 This sucks! :frantics: :no: :mad: Quote Link to comment
Bob3 Posted April 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 I spoke to Dave at Futofab today. I told him that there is a need for a quality company to build a good quality flare. He agrees and said he will look into it! 3 Quote Link to comment
