Installing Powerwagon Fender flares

Just wondering if anyone has installed the fender flares from the powerwagon. How was the install, time, tools needed,part numbers, any other hints...etc. Oh how many beers is necessary. Thanks alot. Also, has any one installed the black plastic bumper facia that matches the flares. Ifso, how much, and how was the install. Thank you once again for any comments or advice.

I saw some the pics from member "Jerry R" who has them on his truck. Might ask him the particulars on getting them and doing the installation.

Consider the Bushwacker flares too. Easy to install, good quality and most likely ligher in the wallet also.

Keep in mind that those PW flares hardly stick out past the fender at all. If you just want the look they are great. If you are looking for protection then you may want to find some that stick out further....

With no flairs my H2's threw mud all over my truck. Now with the Powerwagon Flairs I just get a little mud behind each wheel. Big improvement and I hate the looks of flairs that stick out too far. It's just whatever you prefer.

Jerry I agree. I don't want them to stick out to far. I like the look of yours, but I hate to have to move the Cummins C badge. I guess that is unavoidable though, huh?

TexasCTD,

Ya, it has to be moved. But it is posible to just move it up and just a little forward if you want to maintain the same general position. Keep your head down and take all precautions. Rita looks to be a bad one.

Jerry, that's good news. I figured they wouldn't help much but I'm glad to hear they actually stop some of the crud from getting all over the truck...

I finished installing my flares yesterday and I am very pleased with the results. Thanks again Jerry R. Only problem was the 20 mile drive to see an 2006 so that i could position my Cummins decals correctly. The dealership gave me some odd stares.

Those look great. I think that may be what my rig needs. Can someone answer the original questions? Tools? Time? Cost? TY

Those power wagon flares look awesome.
How much ? Where ?
Also, will the contoured Mopar mud flaps still fit or do I need the
flat type ?

Just got mine from the dealer. Ordered them on the phone and they were there the next morning. They listed for $349 and I got them for $314.

You can also order them through Dodgeparts.com


I haven't had time to install them yet. I doubt there is much to installing them....looks like just a few screws all around the fenderwell.
