Omix-ADA 7" Fender Flare Kit - '99 Jeep Wrangler Sport

In this video I install the Omix-ADA 7 Inch Fender Flare kit. This kit fits Jeep Wranglers (TJ) from 97-06.
Tires are 33x12.5r15 (4.25" offset) BFGoodrich KO2s
I didn't mention it in the video, but a keen observer might notice I added my own washers. The included washers are just a bit too small. Any wide washer with a 1/4" hole will work. The ones I used are actually called "Fender Washers" at the bolt shop. Go figure.

just bought a set of these to replace my old bushwhackers.. went to the hardware store bought a nutsert tool and a whole bag of nutserts , flat washers and spring washers.. life is great when things are this easy.

[@bcgrassi]

I couldn't figure out those nut-serts, I tried one and it just kept spinning. Had been looking online and found some new tool I'd have to buy for this one-time use. I'm so glad you made this video and I stumbled upon it. Super simple but yet so effective!! Thanks a bunch!

[@lancesavageau8698]

Best demo on this application ive seen. Thanks

[@trig5010]

[@joneszhu4985]

[@spacerag]

Thank you for watching!

[@CH3X001]

Was waiting for this!! Jeeps looking good

[@CH3X001]

Sawzall works everytime zipties aswell.... (Mytruck)

[@spacerag]

It saved so much time. Zip-ties were my backup plan if the fasteners gave me trouble. haha

[@spacerag]

And thanks! :D

[@CH3X001]

Haha yea some if not most of stuff is zipped on my truck :'D

[@littlemancaveontheprairie4753]

Looking good man...the black looks so much better than the grey too...

[@spacerag]

Yeah, they really suit it. Looks better than I expected!

[@alberti119]

Great video, I was swearing at the nutserts spinning in the body, this helps

[@spacerag]

Those nutserts are such a pain in the caboose.

[@NickG]

Looks good. one more part and you'll have a new jeep.

[@spacerag]

Haha, if only. I've fixed so much on it already, and still so much more to go.

[@chrisstiles7714]

Good video. Did you end up using nut-serts for all of the holes? I don’t see any reason to go back with the fasteners that require you to hold the back of it.

[@danhambrick6331]

Big improvement over the stock flares....

[@spacerag]

Definitely!

[@SteveRobReviews]

NIcely done and you have a sawzall lady in action too :)

[@spacerag]

Haha, thanks Steve. She's pretty good with that thing.

[@paulchambers969]

do you think a 0 offset 33 be much further inside the flare

[@coachgeo]

well it has been a couple years...... how have they held up?

[@RBH225]

“There you go. Your ugly nutsert is installed” 😂

[@kevinengland4675]

Looks awesome man but you’re gonna have to get after the rust on that passenger fender there soon

[@spacerag]

Definitely agree. I think it's too far-gone to fix that fender. Probably best to replace the whole thing.

[@kevinengland4675]

Rock Auto for the win man 😁

[@spacerag]

Oh yeah? I'll check them out when the time comes. Thanks for the tip, man!

[@spacerag]

I'm not planning on entering any Show-N-Shines any time soon. lol

[@STRATUSVASCULAR]

Wanna sell those stock flares to someone wanting to restore a tj? You just cut em off!!😂

[@spacerag]

Who would buy faded old OEM flares?

[@Alex7889.]

Jeep turned out 👍👍👍👍 What size of wheels do you have o it???

[@spacerag]

The wheels were 15". I can't recall the width though tbh. They had a big 4.25" offset to accommodate the 33x12.5 tires

[@Alex7889.]

@@spacerag thank you so much for rhe reply 👍👍👍

[@papatriot9882]

Did this on mine and have slight gaps in some places between the body and the flare. A little concerned about crap getting stuck in there in winter. Has that been an issue for you? I'm thinking about running some silicone in the gap.

[@spacerag]

Mine hasn't got a straight line left on it so I likely have a lot of little gaps. I never had any issues with slop or ice getting in and causing issues. It would be a real mess to have to get silicone off there after. I'd let it buck. These things are full of all kinds of nooks and crannies for ice and dirt to get stuck. What's a few more?

[@papatriot9882]

@@spacerag thanks for the reply. You are right! Mine is an 04 and only 60K miles and I’m probably too neurotic about it 😀 I have to remind myself it’s just a Jeep!

[@evsta100]

@@spacerag Did they not give you a casket to fit on the flares that sits against the body?

[@RevSpongeBobSP]

Question, while the flares are off, can you drive or do the inner fenders flop around? I ask as I will need to do this over a few days while fixing rust before putting the new ones on.

[@spacerag]

It's been a while now but as I recall the inner fenders werent attached using any of the hardware holding on the fender flares. It seemed as though it was made to function without any flares at all.

[@RevSpongeBobSP]

@@spaceragThank you very much for the quick reply, it is appreciated. I have been wanting to get the body work going as the frame and everything else is rock solid, but running around and being the center of aa 7 yer olds world makes the task scary. Gotta be there for the kids daily routines, lol. Again, thank you!

[@spacerag]

Good luck! Both with the jeep and the 7 year old. Maybe you can teach them to sand bondo. ;)

[@cornita8122]

How did you remove spinning riv nuts?

[@HelloImNotJohnnyCash]

I just drilled them out and replaced mine with new ones with a splined edge which grip to the metal al little better than the original ones

[@benjamindavidson632]

Now you need bigger tires.

[@spacerag]

Lol!

[@stevenhill2204]

Yep. Cut 'em.
