Does anyone know how to get the 4 bolts in (that make a square) in after a tube fender install? Mine won’t line up at all despite all other fasteners being fine. It’s the barricade fenders from extreme terrain

Are the other fasteners loose or tight? If they are tight loosen them all and get the other four started. If they are already loose, disregard.
Yeah they’re loose. I think my fenders were cut wrong, as I can get the two engine side ones in but the other 2 are way off. I’ll probably just drill them to make them work if my dads insight can’t get it aligned tomorrow.
Idc if it’s looks off, it’s a 4 cyl and ain’t worth much anyways
Usually it’s the aftermarket stuff that isn’t designed correctly. It’s why we emphasize buying certain products and avoiding others. After all is said and done fixing what some company messed up it would have been worth it to buy the best on day 1. Buy once cry once.
Couldn’t agree more. But, it’s a rust belt 4 banger TJ. I can’t justify 500-700 fenders
So a bunch of different stuff huh? I have a RC 2.5 and the shocks suck complete ass.
Thinking about going rancho, your thoughts?
I bought it with the lift. I’m not to blame lol. You have a really nice set up though. If I ever bite the bullet and get a 4.0, I may take some of your setup into account.
I heard rancho was good though. It just sorta rides like garbage now. Probably gonna get an adjustable track bar too for the bump steer.
The fenders I got from extremeterrain honestly get a 6/10 for me. The fenders fit horribly. I ended up using my tractor with the bucket off and a 2x4 to get it aligned just enough to line up the nut plates. Once the tractor was on it and all was aligned it was cake. To any prospective tube fender installers: zip tie the harnesses out of the way when cutting. There’s also a connector behind the 4 bolt on the inner fender on the drivers side. It pops out with two Christmas tree clips.
Anyways, my arms are destroyed:

Yeah, Rough Country does live up to its name. If you have bump steer it’s usually because of a dropped pitman arm. Very common with RC lifts. Go back to stock pitman arm.
