Bushwacker fender flares

Does anyone know if 97 taco fender flares will fit on a 98 4runner sr5? I have searched the hell out of this question and cant seem to find the answer. thanks everyone!

It depends if your truck has running boards....or if it's a LTD with flares that go with body molding. Personally I would stay away from bushwacker....helped a friend install them on his Tacoma and we had to re-drill everything....when Bushwacker stated they will match the factory holes. If you want a better product then Bushwacker look at Xenon sport flares.

They will not fit! Unless you modify them somehow

The extenda-a-fender version looked good on my '97.

trout bum those pictured in #6 are the SR5 flares I believe.

That is a nice ride and whose would that be please? I like that marker light on the front fender and it appears to have a JDM mirror on the drivers side fender?

Im not sure whos 4runner it is, but it is identical to mine as far as color. The side markers are universals I believe. The only thing that I would at to this rig is some sliders from trail gear. i cant wait until mine looks this nice!

Yellow side marker is a custom touch-the one below the antenna is the one I am referring to.

Best of luck with your move to Denver.

I have Bushwacker extend a fenders on order-they all come in black but can be painted of course to match the body color.

sweet, where did you get them from? the extend a fenders go further down on the front bumper i think...the sr5 style like the ones in the maroon 4runner dont go down as far and have more of a plasticky feel, right?

thanks for the good like! I am def going to change my timing belt before i head out west!
