Introducing the first real functional high line fender flare option for the JL Wrangler and JT Gladiator! These flares increase tire clearance over split/modified Rubicon factory flares and actually sit a touch higher as well.
- 3/16" Aluminum Laser Cut, CNC Formed, TIG Welded Construction
- 3/16" HRPO Steel Tie In Brackets for mounting strength to resist bending or pulling away from the body
- Front Mounted DRL/Turn Signal LEDs Included
- Natural Aluminum with DA Sanded Finish
- Drilling and Rivet Nuts Required For Installation
- Trimming/removal of factory fender flare brackets required for optimal installation and clearance
- Increased tire clearance - tested with 42"x14.50 tires and minimal bump stop additions
Many of these photos show JLs with 37" tires/factory axles and factory bumpstops (Granite/Gray JL) and others are shown with 42"x14.50R17 tires (the white JL) on full width 68" wide axles. The Red JL (Stepchild/LiteBrite JL) are shown with 40" tires and 72.5" width axles and additional lift.
FAQ:
How wide are these flares compared to factory?
Some may call this a 7.75" (almost 8") wide flare, but that entirely depends on where you measure! See below diagram. Compared to a factory Rubicon plastic flare, these are only 5/8" narrower at the rear arch, however they stay that same width as they follow the hood as it narrows towards the front of the vehicle, and up 3.5" narrower at the turn signals. They also don't come quite as far forward as the factory flares, which helps them to stay out of those crazy obstacles and rocks you might find on the trail. We wanted to stick to a form that offers coverage at the rear to function as a proper flare, and also follow the lines of the factory hood a bit closer then the Rubicon flares. See the diagram below for more!
What do the turn signals and DRL (daytime running lights) look like in operation?

parts inspired by the trail
Our team got into the game after rock crawling, wrenching, fabricating and being inspired to design and build parts for what we love to do: hit the trail.
what our customers are saying
★★★★★They invited me and my whole crew in for a tour of the facility on our way to Moab. These guys not only produce amazing armor for your Jeep, they are really good people. So, I’ve been running their rear diff skid for 9 months and it has easily held up to everything I’ve thrown at it.

★★★★★After this go around with Moab and Holy cross, the diff skids did their job and protected my Jeep. My rear aluminum bumper performed phenomenally on the trail!

★★★★★Can’t say enough about Dan and his ultra skilled team! Dan was able to get us in for a skidplate with UHMW & sliders for our JKUR. The fit, finish and quality are just out of this world! Can you say “stacked dimes”? Absolutely gorgeous welds…

★★★★★2 years later I'm writing this review. I've beaten the crap out of this thing hitting rocks, winching, draging it down obstacles, and now exposed to the Florida elements. The bumper looks like it did the day they sent it. You will not find a better company to work with that cares about their clients and their products!

★★★★★My rear Next Venture diff skid takes a beating! Best rear diff skid available. Well done!
Lee Bower
★★★★★Without a doubt, Next Venture Motorsports is my first stop for epic Jeep parts. Their JL aluminum front and rear featherweight bumpers are solidly built, easy enough to install, and crafted to perfection. I can't wait for more products for my 2 door JL!

★★★★★I like it because it lets you use factory fog lights if you want. They also have a featherweight aluminum option that doesn't have holes for fogs and is essentially a stubby bumper. I am very pleased with all of their stuff. [JL/JT Adventure Series Bumper]
