Can anyone definitely tell me if the EGR or Bushwacker fender-flares will work on a 2000 flareside truck? I see some guys using Ranger Edge flares, so I am assuming the aftermarket ones will work as well (in spite of the both companies saying "no"), but I would like confirmation before dropping nearly $350! Thanks!
 
Why not go find some at a junkyard? Just clean em up spray em. Of course make sure they fit first. You'll deffinately have to drill holes for em. I just think it'll look weird but that's me.
 
After market flares will work. they worked on my 94 bed.

Do you remember which brand you went with?

Do the Bushwacker flares bolt straight up? Any hole-drilling involved? What size (1", 2", etc) did you go with?

Thanks

Bushwacker makes Extend-a-Fender flares for the flareside trucks...look at my avatar.
 
I co worker has a set of factory flares that came off of a 97 fleet-side bed & he has them mounted on his 98 step side. I have seen several people do away with the factory clips & use thin 3M brand tape along the body mounting surface & then screws along the wheel well lip in the factory holes that are in the flares.

The inner fender well is held on with five 5.5mm screws. I had them held on with those as well as some other self tapping screws too. So I had 6 extra hole with the self tappers.
