I'v been thinking about doin this with an old fender I have. Just don't have the tubeing yet. What I was thinking was cut at the body line and just run tubeing there and make it come down on an angle like they do with the jeeps. It would't have any flares but still look pretty wicked imo.

thats what im doing on mine. rears are almost done.



its going to be hard to do a flare and make it look right on a ranger, it works good on jeeps because the front curves in.

i dont want anything sticking out past the body anyways.

I dont know how I fell with the look of those flares on a ranger. MAYBE.. if its only sticking out a little bit it would be alright. But if its as much as those jeeps, then no thanks.
