Well I ordered my first tube parts thos morning! Got a set of rear tube fenders 1.5in .120 wall dom tube rear fenders for 33.50 +20 bucks shipping, and the guy is selling a diy kit for the front also for 50 bucks so I am going to pick that up also and see if he will cut me a break on shipping but overall I should have my complete diy tube fender kit for front and rear to my door for under 200 bucks, and that is with a 5in flare.!!
Well just got off the phone with the guy my front and rear fenders will be here next week around thurs 180 for diy front and rear kits including shipping and extended up front for my highline!

SWEET post up the link.. maybe he will get some more poorboy buisness? I like the gen right look too but a lil' more than I can afford. Hey what d44 did you go with? year etc.? I'm getting ready for mine to start my build soon. Going to be using hummer bead locks to uck under the fenders. Should be about 5" narrower than she is currently with 15.5" swampers.

the guy doesnt have a website here is his ebay seller id, and crap - auto_rescue_1 and his store motors.shop.ebay.com/merchant/auto_rescue_1_W0QQ_nkwZQQ_armrsZ1QQ_fromZI have a 78 ford bronco front end, its 60in wms to wms I am runnin around 80in wide with my 35x12.5 tires perfect for the trails around here!, stock wrangler width, are you going to recenter the hummer beadlocks? or are you going to go 8 lug? I couldnt afford the genright stuff either, this is the same materials used just a no name guy makin it. |

I have chevys on my other jeep and I had to grind a bit to get the h1 rims to clear the brakes.... I didnt recenter my rims though, I dont want to be too wide and that kept me at around 80in wich is close to what my wrangler runs... though

Well dont buy from the ebay guy I posted up for guys a prick... I called him to ask when the fenders would be sent out he told me monday... wednesday i asked for a tracking number he said he was finnishing them and they would go out the next day, sent him an email friday trying to touch base for the weekend didnt hear anything back so last night i told him if I continued to get no responce that I would have to ask for my money back..... then finally he replied back and said to ask for it back that it wasnt worth this.... All my emails were polite and each one was days after I was told it would be shipped.... What a prick.... dont tell do what you said you would do, if you make an agreement live up to it!
why cant people keep there word!

with the dispute through paypal...... you should get your money back... paypal should credit you and then they'll pull it from his bank account/credit card attched to his paypal.... as long as you don't have the product...
keep us informed...good luck!

Sounds good, just wish it didnt take 30 days to fix it.... oh well i left the guy neg feedback and dropped his rating down to 92 percent and by denying his request to cancel the transaction ebay wont allow him to relist for free.... I reported him to ebay also so now im just waiting to get my refund....
Well hopefully my bender plans work out I need to get my jeep back together... LOL
