Need even more clearance for really large tires? We have the Hatchet high line fender solution for you.
When using 42" & 43" tires along with long travel suspension systems on your 2018-Current Jeep JL/JLU/JT, the limitation in "up" travel in your suspension is the underside of the fender. We have solved this by raising the uppermost section of the fender by several inches, effectively increasing your suspension travel substantially.
The Motobilt replacement front Hatchet high line 2" fender flares for the Jeep JL/JLU/JT are manufactured from heavy duty steel plate. They are 3D CAD designed using modern 3D scanning technology to ensure the perfect fit on your Jeep JL/JLU/JT. The fender flares will work on all versions of the Jeep JL/JLU/JT including the Sport, Rubicon, Sahara and more.
The Motobilt replacement Hatchet high line front fender flares feature a raised section using a “chopped” Rubicon flare as a benchmark for height to provide even more clearance for larger extra diameter tires up to 43”. We provide extra clearance for the factory hood latches as well.
The fender flares ship bare steel to allow the installer to choose to color match their Jeep if desired. You will need to paint or powder coat them before install as scratching sometimes occurs during fitment. Suggested Inner Fenders:

Notes
IMPORTANT: If installing MB1243 inner fenders one of the lower #10 nut serts will need to be removed to accept the larger 5/16” bolts that are used with the high line fenders. Also the two upper mounting bolts should use the 1/4” nut serts versus the #10.
If you want the must clearance possible you can cut the lower section back 1.82"s as shown in the MB1243 instructions.
