    I installed mine this morning. Double check the drilled hole locations that fix the liner to the truck frame.

    The manual tells you to put them both into place in the same place but my liner had drivers side behind the center of the wheel and passenger side in front of center. There were clips in both places, just required extra work to undo one step.

    I don't know about the 10 mins thing, I would say much closer to 45!

    Got mine this past week, directions are very clear, however you do have to remove the 8 factory hex head screws around the factory flare opening and go from there. Hopefully I'll get mine installed this week.

    Since I know someone will ask here you go. It does block a little bit of the fox shock, but overall I like the black white contrast my truck has with beadlocks and covering up white wheel wells enhances the look

    Wheel liners look great. Is there a way to just trim the area near the shock so it would show more?

    Tried putting mine on this morning, emphasis on trying. I have mud flaps on mine and after getting it in place realized the bottom hole for the flaps is not drilled. Looks like I'll have to remove the wheel to drill the hole. Probably just go ahead and install them and do the drilling at a later date.

    Back to ya one more time. I've been fighting this thing for over an hour. I can get the screw into the frame but no matter how much I try, cannot get the front holes to line up. Short of just drilling new holes, that's about the only option I have. Did you run into this problem.
    Thanks again, Paul

    YUP - 45 minutes on each side.. put them back in the box and they are going back. Looks like some of the unit where not cut properly - there is NO WAY the ones i got would even fit tin the wheel well let alone get the holes to line up.. Husky was cool about the return procedure - so far.

    I know what you are thinking but im telling you I wrestled these MotherFkers every which way to sunday.. not even close..

    Hi VT, at least I know I'm not the only one. I'll be calling first thing in the morning. I got mine up in there but no holes.
    Thanks for the update, Paul

    I got them to line up but I had to keep pushing and pulling on top of surface above the tire. I think it would be relatively easy to do with wheels off but the tight clearance doesn't give you much working room.

    I felt like an a##hole out there sunday morning all sweaty getting frustrated as hell with these things as my neighbors go by walking dogs watching me struggle.

    Ok Guys,
    Just got off the phone with Husky, and they already know about the PROBLEM and are fixing it and the new ones should be coming out next week. They are sending me a label to ship them back and in turn will send a new set when available.
