Smittybilt Tube Fenders

I'm thinking on buying some...but I would love to see them on a TJ...I've searched and searched the net for pics with no success...Smittybilt has one pic of 'em on a YJ they bolt on with an inner fender...that's convienient! my buddy and I where gonna attempt to make some but with the price if steel, the fact that I still have to chop up my original fenders and one is still in great shape I thought this may be the way to go....they come ready to paint and jus bolt 'em on...I can get them for around $800.

I've got a Smittybuilt front double-tube bumper (polished black) on the front of my CJ. Looks awesome and bolted to the stock holes. Also has mounting spots for foglights ...altho not the greatest spot to avoid damage (put on cheapies) ...but convenient nonetheless. Very satisfied with it and it's pretty damn tough and hard to bend.

I saw a few sets on TJs when I was at Moab last week. The only knock I've heard on them is fairly thin tubing compared to Poison Spider. You might look at Rev1, too. They have a new fender that also incudes the inner skin.

I installed Poison Spider units on my YJ last fall. Cutting the fender is really pretty easy, just requiers a bit of measuring & marking to make sure you get the cuts right. Clifton designed them that way beacuse thre's so much stuff hung on TJ inner fenders it's hard to relocate everything. Also lets someone chuck the whole stock fender and go with just the tube unit.

Saw some on TJs last week in Moab. They look about the same as the Poison Spyder Customs units, the only knock being that they are made from thinner wall tubing.

kool...I wonder how much thinner? the big seller for Smitty is the inner fender...although without the wheel flair it worries me if they'll be legal in Nova Scotia...I was told I should be able to pass with them... I saw today Rev1 has come out with one aswell and it looks jus like the Smitty, even has the inner fender...no idea on $$$ though

They look fairly easy to build. I'm going to make a couple of sets for Jeepsters this summer.

I'm wonderin' if these Smittybilt fenders would be street legal in Canada without the added flair?
