So I have my first FSJ. It's a NT. It needs the usual rockers and rear quarters. My question is this. Given the pic below, should I just cut and out on flares or just get the large patch panel from BJs and not add flares?
I like the WT look but won't add flares if I have to add them and put in the patch panel. I realize there's still some qp work to do even if I can just add flares.
Ideas?

You understand that the Wide Track Jeeps, both the Cherokee and the J-truck, have wider axles than the NT Wagoneer? Adding wide track flares to a narrow track vehicle without changing axles will look goofy, IMO. The tires will be way in under the body.
Typically when you go with larger tires on a Wagoneer or NT Cherokee, you cut the fenders back a couple of inches. Making the wheel openings a little larger is common, and can be tidy and professional looking, if done properly.
So no, I would not consider flares.

Yes, I knew that and thanks for the advice. I'll be adding a 3-4" lift and some 32x11.50s. Will I have any problems with that tire size with a lift and not cuts to the fenders?
