B) Fit: Verify the fit of the flares to vehicle. (Some filing, sanding, or cutting may be necessary to ensure proper fit). C) Painting: (Optional) if paint is desired it must be done prior to installing flares on vehicle. Clean outer surface with a good grade degreaser. DO NOT USE LACQUER THINNER OR ENAMEL REDUCER AS A DEGREASER. Wipe outer surface thoroughly with a tack rag prior to paint. Application of plastic adhesion promoter for ABS plastic as per your paint system manufacturer’s recommendations is required. Paint flares using a high quality enamel, or polyurethane automotive paint. If painting edge trim (not recommended), use a flex additive.

D) Performance: Using larger Tires may increase the area required to turn the vehicle. Some Tire/Rim combinations may require lowering bump stops and or installing steering stops to prevent tire from contacting flare. E) Exhaust System: Modifications may be necessary to maintain a minimum 4” clearance between flares and exhaust pipes. (Exhaust gases should not vent directly onto flares)
PLEASE READ: Dirt and debris can become lodged between the fender flares and the vehicle’s fenders, causing scratching and paint wear from vibration. Lund International is not responsible for any damage, and the installation of our fender flares is done with the buyer’s understanding that this scratching and paint wear may occur.
F) Metal Protection: All exposed fasteners and bare metal should be treated with rust resistant paint BEFORE installing flares. Spray inner fender wells with undercoating AFTER flare attachments have been completed. G) Decals: Flares may interfere with existing decals on vehicle. If you wish, remove decals prior to installation of flares.
LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY AGAINST ANY MANUFACTURING DEFECTS
H) Care & Cleaning: Bushwacker fender flares are built to last; any detergent you use to wash your vehicle is sufficient to clean the flare. Do not use any harsh abrasive detergents.

Flare Installation Procedures: STEP 2 - Disassembly (Rear): A) Jack up vehicle and use jack stands. B) Remove wheel and wheel well trim (if so equipped). C) Remove screws holding mud flap bracket. D) Using 1/4” drill bit, drill out spot welds holding support bracket to sheet metal. See Photo #1. Retain bracket as it will be reattached later.

A) If your 4Runner is equipped with a stone guard on the front leg of opening, it will be necessary to do one of the following: 1) Removing Stone Guard: There are fasteners holding the stone guard that will leave exposed holes in the body when removed. It will require filling and paint to cover. 2) Cutting Stone Guard: Position flare in place and mark a line onto guard where flare overlaps. Remove flare and cut guard on marked line. If you’re using the supplied fender gimp between the flare and sheet metal, cut an additional 3/16” off stone guard. B) Place flare into wheel well opening. Make sure flare is tight against the body and contours align. Slip leg of gimp between flare and sheet metal at lower front. Bulb of gimp should be tight against flare. Assemble drill screw into cap washer. (see illustration # A-1) Install drill screw and cap washer into lower front through flare, gimp and sheet metal. Apply a dab of silicone or body sealer to hole to seal. Repeat same procedure for pocket above. Lower rear pocket uses the assembly in illustration #A-1. Secure under side center area with (3) drill screws. Secure bottom of front and rear legs with drill screws.
