Suzuki Samurai Aluminum Fender Flares: The Secret to bending 6061 Aluminum.

[@titaniumman_22]

Looks great man.

[@FabbinAdventures]

Thanks, yeah they turned out good. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@Pitman556]

These are awesome. I want these for a sidekick/geo tracker

[@FabbinAdventures]

Theyd be tough to maje for them as they dont have flat fenders like a samurai. Thanks for watching!

[@ravinperera4255]

Nice work!

[@FabbinAdventures]

Thanks!

[@MonkeyWithAWrench]

i've been toying with a similar idea. I wanted to extend them down closer to the rock sliders on mine, but overall, pretty damn slick.

[@FabbinAdventures]

Yeah they turned out pretty good, could have been a bit longer like you say, but i like the look of how these turned out! Thanks for watching, subscribe if you havent already, im putting out videos every friday.

Hola cómo traducir el vídeo en español

[@placesbenwillgo157]

Great video some more ideas for my side by side. I didn't know that about annealing the alum pipe to bend it

[@FabbinAdventures]

Wow, your really watchin my channel, thanks man! Yes, there are other aluminum alloys that will bend fine, but 6061 is not one of them, but if you need to bend it, this trick works great! Thanks for watching, and commenting, please share my videos!

[@fungsaiyuk3910]

i really need this on my troopers,i like DIY bcause i can design my own style..love it..i wish i have that welding set..

[@FabbinAdventures]

Thanks, they are pretty easy to build. Thanks for watching!

[@brucegrunert2941]

Great idea and final result! Always enjoy your channel!

[@FabbinAdventures]

Thank you Sir! I appreciate it, and thanks for watching!

[@christhejock5618]

Tidy job and thanks for the tip for bending tube

[@FabbinAdventures]

Yes, im happy with how they turned out! Super solid too! I enjoy giving out usefull tips to help people with their fabrication/projects. This is a neat little trick that really does work awesome! Thanks for watching, subscribe if you havent already, im putting out weekly videos!

[@magicalempire]

I use flares extended with rubber mat, that way if scraping a tree offroad nothing breaks

[@FabbinAdventures]

That would probably work great, i like to build stuff, and ive rubbed these on trees already with no problems.

[@juanbeltran3634]

Hey man great video do you have any videos of fixing of the 1/4 panels?? Thank you in advance

[@FabbinAdventures]

No i dont, unfortunately i started this channel part way through the build. Thanks for watching!

[@sqhatr]

How did you get the oem ones off? All the screws in mine just spin

[@FabbinAdventures]

Chisel them off or drill them out.

[@grenadafruitforest9506]

What would you charge to reproduce those if somone wanted to buy them?

[@williamfeather3915]

Heck ya I plan on buying a set myself

[@FabbinAdventures]

They most likely wouldnt be cheap, i gotta do every thing manual. But if i made a bunch at one time, i might get a bit of a production line going and make them a bit faster and cheaper!

[@zurimaxwell8854]

You should make similar products to sell, I'd buy it!

[@FabbinAdventures]

Yeah, ive had a few people tell me that, but they would end up being to expensive by the time i was done building them. I may try it some day. Thanks for watching

[@hugoolmoscuellar9746]

Me diste una buena idea

[@FabbinAdventures]

Thanks for watching Fabbin Adventures

[@dencon1]

If I had on older zuk I would make a set of fenders similar to the old flat fender willys jeep.Think that would look cool.

[@FabbinAdventures]

Yeah, i had to do something to keep the mud from flying everywhere! I think they turned out good and work well! Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@chrispiatt3801965]

What offset rims did you use to get the extra width

[@FabbinAdventures]

Man i cant really remember the offset, they are procomp 15x10, im guessing that they are 2.5" offset. Thanks for your comment!

[@williamfeather3915]

Holy Shoot these are amazing. I would buy a set from you.

[@FabbinAdventures]

I have had a few people say that, if i had enough interest i may start building them for sale! Thanks for watching Fabbin Adventures, subscribe if you havent already, im putting videos out every friday!

[@joshtaylor3857]

I would buy a set

[@FabbinAdventures]

I might have to look at reproducing them, ive had lots of interest!

[@joshtaylor3857]

@@FabbinAdventures do it Please

[@robertvigil1513]

Are you selling them yet?????

[@mikaelkenson9901]

Fenders looks the part.Good job! Any plans to fab and sell? I need to build fenders asap and can't find anything in plastic that I like so I think I have to make them myself. /Mikael, Stockholm, Sweden.

[@FabbinAdventures]

Thanks, i think they look great, and they are solid and work awesome. I think it would take too long to make them with my equipment, id have to charge too much. Tbey would be hard for me to mass produce and have them fit every sammy out there. Thanks for watching!

[@mikaelkenson9901]

@@FabbinAdventures Thanks for the reply. I understand and agree. To have a production that make you some money and a price that the customer "can handle" is the difficult trick. Why don't we all have CNC pipe benders and water jet cutter in our garages?? ;) :D Have a nice day!

[@Sabrina-pj4us]

Do you sell these? I'd love to buy some.

[@FabbinAdventures]

No i dont, your not the first to ask..lol

[@rudyralston5676]

for sale if so how much

[@FabbinAdventures]

They would be too costly with my current equipment to reproduce. I am though tooling up the shop to make projects like these easier, faster and repeatable. Maybe some time in the future they will be available for sale. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@therallyguy1]

Your the man, Awesome video! Really enjoyed it. Everyone subscribe! This guy kicks a**

[@FabbinAdventures]

Lol thanks man i appreciate it! Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@redneck272]

Your way takes way to long , oxy/acetylene, is way faster and you dont need to let cool Use a sooty flame and cover then heat to remove soot , and put in the bender

[@FabbinAdventures]

Well yeah, but not everybody has oxy/ act, ive been fabricating for alot of years now and only had the need for one a few times. Thanks for watching.

[@westernwanderer8397]

I'm not that confident in my welding skills. You should sell sets. Just leave the inner wheel well panel intact and the buyer can trim to fit.

[@FabbinAdventures]

I sell the mount, but am not going to weld any bodies steering components, way, WAY too much liability. Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@westernwanderer8397]

@@FabbinAdventures You sell the fender flares? Are they just one size or do you offer different sizes?

[@FabbinAdventures]

No sorry, i thought you were talking about the power steering mounts. I have had a ton of people ask me to make these fender flares available to buy. If i had the equipment to make them faster and more repeatable i would, unfortunately the time it takes to make a set would make them too costly to sell.

[@westernwanderer8397]

@@FabbinAdventures No problem. I guess the 4X4 community really love them, especially us guys who don't have the equipment and/or skills to make them ourselves.

[@totilsom]

Welding alum without proper ventilation or mask?? not such a good idea

[@FabbinAdventures]

The shop has good ventilation, and yeah i shoulda had a mask on. I do alot of things that are maybe not such a good idea. Thanks for watching.
