You may want to consider mounting fender flares to your rig if you've added tires that are wider than the stock rubber. Most law-enforcement agencies frown on tires sticking out beyond your truck's body, so flares will keep you legal. They'll also keep your truck cleaner by stopping mud and other muck flung from your front tires. And if you've gone up a few tire sizes, a set of cutout flares will keep your tires from banging into your fenders and bending the metal.
Some flares bolt on, while others stick on with double-sided tape.
Bushwacker has developed a new flare assembly for the rear doors of Chevy and Toyota SUVs that requires no drilling into the door. No matter which style or brand you choose, be sure your flares are durable enough and the mounting system is strong enough to take the punishment your favorite trails dish out. Auxiliary Lights It gets darn dark in the woods or out in the desert, so whether you're pulling your bass boat out after dark or heading into your duck blind before dawn, adding lights is an excellent idea. You will, however, need to decide what kind of light pattern you're looking for, whether it's the broad, low beam from a fog lamp, the long, narrow beam from a spotlight or something in between. Racks Bolt-on racks free up room inside for passengers and are ideal for carrying gas cans.
