Rubicon High Clearance fenders on Max tow

[RAMCTFOLEY]

Hello, I had a question for anyone that has completed this mod. Should front and rear fenders be swapped or just the front? I currently have 33's from my JK on and wasn't sure if its worth ordering the rear rubicon fenders.

Mine is a Sport, 2” lift with 35’s, Rubicon front flares and Sport rear flares.

Thanks Boatdude that's exactly what I wanted to see. I wasn't sure how the rubicon fronts with the sport rears would look but looks great one yours.

I don't think the rears are totally necessary, especially with 33's. Take measurements and see how far away they are already. I watched a northridge 4x4 video the other day on the swap, and seems pretty easy. Sorry don't have the link but it was on youtube, should be easy to find.

I'm thinking I might need some 35's lol

I really wanted to do the swap for the led drls not so much for clearance. I looked at all the available options for just the drls but looks like a pita to swap into the housing and still kind of pricey.

I just watched that video this morning made me feel inspired.

You need 35’s. > Toyo RT on Methods.

And thanks for asking the question! I may add that to the list!

I agree on the 35's but my tires have less than 7k on them. I bought them for my JK that had 3.13 gears I think so 35's weren't an option without changing the gears. Wish I knew what I know now when I got my jk that's why I git the max tow.

I also don't drive much only had 33k miles on my 2013 jk before I got my JT last July and that only has 1,500 on it.

You guys running lift kits or leveling kits? I had the rancho sport 2inch on my Jk and I regretted it way too stiff. Thinking about the mopar 2inch but open to other suggestions in that price range.

OP are you using the entire fenders with lights or just the fenders themselves ?

I was going to use the fenders with the lights. Found the fenders on ebay with the led drls also purchased the oem knockoff headlights on quadratec DV8 I think. Was hoping to do the led conversion on my whole truck since it wasn't an option for 2020 max tow.

I have the 2” Mopar lift on mine, it rides great and it’s not going to see a lot of off-road use, I have a TJ for that.

I just leveled mine and put 33's on. No problems at all.
