Both purchased new last December. That's mine on top and a friend's on the bottom. All four of his fenders have a small ridge on the leading edge that isn't on my fenders. Anyone have any idea why? Both are stripped down Sports with only options Auto and a hitch.

What he said....... above me and the other one above that.

The one with the lip is a MAX TOW the one without the lip, isn't.

This. The second one is a Max Tow... Wider axles, bigger brakes, better engine cooling, bigger alternator, rear limited slip differential...
And importantly 4.10 gears and 7500lb towing

your buddy got the “max tow” package. The max tow package is a whole lot more then the normal tow package. It’s a $900+ option. If you want to lift a gladiator on the cheap, it’s the option to get.

1. Rubicon width axles
2. 4.10 gears
3. The wider two piece fenders
4. Bigger fan
5. Upgraded springs
6. Daytime running lights
7. Newer versions get limited slip differential

Daytime running lights are not part of the max tow package. Everything else listed is correct.

Basically, someone bought a truck and never bothered to either ASK about the options it had, or look at the window sticker or build sheet.
Sorry, no offense, but that's an uninformed buyer who didn't ask "what's it got".

Well then maybe they added it to the package at some point. I have a 2020 base Sport with max tow that does not list daytime running lights on the window sticker. I know they rearrange the option package contents periodically like when they added limited slip to the max tow package (which mine does have).

Yeah when I was shopping for one I noticed different prices for the max tow option only then did I notice some didn't have the limited slip, plus I noticed 3 different prices for the option.
