Title: Wrangler YJ front wings
Post by: Green Jeep on June 06, 2010, 07:23:47 PM

I have now trashed both front wings in either tight lanes (often) and punch hunts... thinking of ditching them and having something along the 'challenge' spec lines....

Any thoughts, pics etc welcome.

Thanks in advance Maf

I am in the same position as you mate. multiple trashing and wheel coming up tooooo high syndrome :icon_twisted: Tube fenders is the only solution as NB says .....and he's got em.

I am about to do some in the next few  ???? weeks??? but will do a 4" flare and make up the rest with thick conveyor belt stuff cos I need 7" coverage.

Jeeptubes.com  shows how easy it is ........ 2 pieces of tube and some angle stock and then 2mm plate over....... :icon_super: :icon_super:
