My Bronco has a lot of rot along each quarter panel, especially around the wheel well. I had the idea of taking the quarter panels off, cutting

out all of the rust, and placing on fender flares. I have a friend that is a welder and we could easily weld in stainless steel to replace what has

rotten away.

What kind of fender flares would you recommend for my 1994 Bronco XLT?

Bushwacker makes a good product. If you are looking for all your options, truckaddons.com has a pretty good selection. They can sometimes be a pain with applications, but overall a pretty helpful sight for most of the things you could be looking for.

I think I may go a diif than BushWacker (luv that name...lol), to save $ and do somethAng diff;

Flare, Modification; "...Heres what jeep flares look like, i went to the junkyard and they let me have 8 for 30$ and i only used 2 on the back, just marked it for the flare contour, got out the old air nibbler and i like the way it turned out....but my main reason was to cut off the rusted thru parts of the quarter..."

Will ask him how far they go up from the original wheel lip, but from the pic, you can figure it out.. also, it looks as tho the flare doesn't extend far enuf dn on backside of the wheel well lip

or

Flare, Modification; "...i used flares off of a 98 ford explorer sport 2 door 4 door wont work. the fender radius is almost the same. only mods i had to do was where the "V" shape is towards bottom of truck i had to slightly mod the flares by cutting them with a die grinder. the ***** holes along the fender lip also matched up nicely. it tooka couple of days of trial fitting but they look nice. and along the top i instaled small bolts so they look the pocket flares made by bushwacker. this was necessary to hold them tightly to the body. it cost me a total of 50.00 to put these on. flares where 30.00 at pull a part auto wrecking..."
