Hello, I have a 94 ext cab Ranger. it has the factory fender flares on it. I removed the push pins on them around the lip of the fender, but they still dont want to come off. I dont know if they have clips that are holding them on or double sided tape. I dont want to break anything, so if any of you have removed your factory fender flares, please advise me on this. Thanks.

well your 1 step down a few more to go.. on the back side their are some bolts.. those have to come off an usually break off.. i broke all mine an made my own replacement pieces.. a piece of screen a some 1/4 20 bolts worked great... theirs also a few clips here an their that have to come out after i got the bolts off i pryed the flare off an removed the clips after with some needle nose pliars.. the back flares are by far easier to do than the front..

ok, so do the inner fender wells have to come out? I dont remember seeing any bolts, but maybe I didnt look hard enough, or maybe the inner fender well has to come out in order for me to see them. Thanks

on my 2004 after you remove all the push pins around the lip you can just pull the flares off. the only thing that holds them in are little clips that come out with a good pull. but thats on a 2004, dont know how different they are.

You should be able to push up on the flare and it will slide off the clips on the exterior. It may take some force, then just pull the clips once the flare is off.
