Product details

Rear tire clearance becomes a challenge fast once you start stretching wheelbase or moving to larger tires. Factory openings limit uptravel, and generic tube flares often do little to improve packaging around the tire. These Hatchet Rear Fender Flares were designed as part of a larger system, not as a universal flare.

These flares were specifically engineered around the Motobilt 2 Inch Stretch Corner Armor, part number MB1220. The flare profile, mounting pattern, and body lines were developed to integrate with that armor system for proper fit and appearance. When installed with MB1220, the flares provide a clean integrated package while opening the wheel well for up to 37-inch tires.

Built from 3/16-inch American steel with a double-arched profile, they add strength while significantly increasing rear wheel opening clearance. Available in 2-inch and 4-inch widths, builders can choose the tire coverage that fits their build while maintaining the clearance needed for articulation.

If installing these flares without MB1220 corner armor, or with other manufacturers’ corner armor, additional fabrication should be expected. This can include trimming additional factory sheet metal and drilling new mounting holes to adapt the flares to your application. Builders considering alternate installations can review this in the MB1220 instructions, where the relationship between the corner armor and flare fitment is shown clearly.
