metal or fiberglass cj fenders?

Spring lift at rear causing noise/vibration?

Hey,

I am looking for advice on what fenders to buy to replace mine. I have 2 options aftermarket Metal fenders or 4wd hardware fiberglass.

Has anyone ever had experience with fiberglass fender from 4wd hardware? I have been told fiberglass hoods take alot of work to make them straight before you can paint them.

And i have been told aftermarket metal ones sometimes don't line up right either

eventually i want a fiberglass tub for my cj, so should i also go with a fiberglass pair of fenders?

any advice would be great

thanks

I vasilated over the same thing for a long time, and then finally went with steel.

Over all, it's just more versitle - and if you get a dent you can always pull or pound it out or you can weld it.

The only problem is the stinkin rust that developes, but that can always be cut out and a new piece welded in. In addition, if you don't have a welder, it gives you a reason to get one. There are nice little mig jobbers that run on 110 current and should do almost everything you need on your jeep.
