Here you go....

I need to get fenders to provide coverage to pass PA inspection (yuck). I am running JK Stock Moab rims/tires on my M416. From the photos, it looks like these would provide that coverage, but when I measure from the side of the tub to the the very far edge of the tire, it came to just under 12". Will 10" wide fenders do the trick? I think my problem is that the fenders don't sit completely flush with the tub and I was measuring from the tub.

Jenn:

Give Josh at Manley a cal.
His fenders are very nice and cover the whole tire.

I actually just talked to Jenn. Our blem fenders are unfortunately all sold out. All we have is our good production fenders; which we would sell but we do them in such small quantities right now that it is just too cost prohibitive to sell them as a standalone product. We'd be laughed off of Expo Portal for what we would have to charge :Wow1: We hope to stamp in much larger quantities in the future to bring the cost down to a reasonable level.

Thanks, Josh - hope I get to throw business your way in the future!

I will either try to get a local fab shop to cut mine in half or look at Fenders & More. This inexpensive M416 is my new money pit.

Rubber fender flares. Would they get you through an inspection??

....I think my problem is that the fenders don't sit completely flush with the tub and I was measuring from the tub.

My problem was that the sides of the tub are slanted slightly outward towards the top. The fenders were going to be crooked if I mounted them right to the tub. I ended up mounting the fenders approx. 2" away from the tub and fabbing a Filler piece to fill the gap.

Jsherb.....they need your fenders!!

Jscherb.....they need your fenders!!

These round ones are 13" wide and are commercially available from a number of sources, they seem to be cheapest at KMT Service Parts, $52.30 per pair (http://kmtparts.com/trailer-body-co...s/13x36-sgl-fender-20in-t-1in-rad-16ga-1.html).

I made these M416-style ones myself, they're also 13" wide...

I can get the M416-style ones manufactured very reasonably if there's a company or someone who wants to sell them. (I don't sell anything, I just do this as a hobby).

thanks for this suggestion. I looked a bit online and really counldn't find anything that looked like it would work. I do wonder if YJ flares would work.

Hahaha - that was my thought, too! He must have heard his name taken in vain.

Thanks, JScherb. I wish Scott, from Dinoot would start selling some fiberglass versions of the flat fender. I might go the round fender route, for now, until I can get the flat ones. I need to get this wrapped up because my trip is coming up next month.
