Standard Aluminum Front 3.5 Fender for Jeep Wrangler TJ/LJ 1997-2006
Artec's Standard Aluminum Front 3.5 Fender pulls the front sheet metal of a Wrangler TJ or LJ back and up so bigger tires can cycle through full suspension travel without rubbing. Factory fenders are the first thing a lifted TJ hits at full stuff; this high-clearance aluminum pair fixes that while trimming real weight off the nose compared with steel tube fenders. The raised 3.5 profile gives the front end a purposeful, tucked look that matches how the Jeep actually gets used. It bolts on, so no fabrication is needed to make the swap.

Standard Aluminum Front 3.5 Fender for Jeep Wrangler TJ/LJ 1997-2006 FAQs
Which Jeeps do these fenders fit?
The Jeep Wrangler TJ and long-wheelbase LJ Unlimited, 1997-2006. They are sold as a driver and passenger pair and bolt on in place of the factory front fenders, so no cutting or welding of the body is required to make the swap.
What does the 3.5 in the name mean?
It refers to the raised, high-clearance profile of the fender. The sheet metal is pulled back and up compared with stock, which opens room for larger tires to cycle through full suspension travel without rubbing on a lifted TJ or LJ.
Do I need inner fenders with these?
They are designed to integrate with Artec's TJ/LJ Vented Inner Fenders (TJ2036), and running both gives the cleanest result — the inner fenders close off the engine bay and vent heat while the outer fenders handle tire clearance. The fenders can be installed on their own if you prefer an open wheel well.
