Notes:

Cannot use stock inner fender with these hinges.
These are for lowered vehicles where the inner fenders are removed.
Hinges mount to firewall where the inner fenders mount.
Some cutting will need to be done for these to fit.

looks great but kind of a lacking

the machining on these look pretty good so long as you're okay with tooling marks.
the included instructions are an absolute joke - the cutting template is just flat out wrong and there's no pictures of how to assemble the system. no torque specs provided.
they also included a stainless screw with a stainless nut for the pivot - this galled immediately on first install and I had to cut it off.
There's no mention anywhere that the factory antenna will interfere with the mechanism.

kind of a joke for $1400. but ultimately they bolted up after I messed around enough and they look great on the truck.

Wrong parts boxed

Very disappointed in product mixed kit don’t match for truck
