Fender Flare Drains

Post by HenryJ »

I removed my flares in preparation for ....(CENSORED) ;)
and could not believe the amount of sediment that had built up inside!

There was about six inches build up inside the right flare. I will be drilling a hole to drain the flares this time. The rears were not bad at all since they were not sealed to the fender like the fronts.

Something to think about...I'll be making provisions for flushing and draining this time :mg:

I think it may have something to do with this

This may take a little while before I have the solution all put together, but if it works out there may be a cost effective alternative offering some benefits that SL, TM and BDS can not offer.
I can't wait :thumb:
