I want bushwacker fender flares for my 04 4x4, I have searched them, and keep finding them different places, and the styles and prices vary wildly. Just hoping for some direction on a new set, or a used set to buy.
I like the style with the stainless rivet look. I don't even know what it's called to search.

I want headers for my 4.0 SOHC but most only seem to fit the OHV...... I want it for a better sound, a couple hp would be nice but I love the way they sound with headers.

Also i would like to find a used programmer for both my 2.3 and my 4.0 (mainly to kill the rev limiter, top speed thingy for when I run salt flats and el mirage)
Otherwise new it looks like rogue has the best for the 4.0 from what I've read.

Thank Ya'll
looking to get flares and headers on as soon as I can get what I'm after.

JBA is the only place to make headers for the Ranger 4.0L SOHC.

The bushwacker flares with the fake hardware on them are called the 'pocket style'

I found some fender flares I like.......

To be honest I've never owned a set (do they need to stick out past my tires? or should they be equal with them?)

My tires stick out from the body 2, maybe 2.5 inches......

ive seen some ranger with the bushwakers, and they covered the tires.
i do like the tires to stand out a bit or at least match the fenderflare line not inside the flare

I don't mind the mud, it's the rock chips on black paint that I don't dig.
so I guess 2 in would do it...........
