    I've been looking around to see if anyone makes a tube fender for early CJ-5-6's. Not have much luck. Does anyone know of any out there, before I go and attempt to build a set? Please say yes, I have enough to do without getting into another adventure. I've seen plenty of intermediate and later CJ tube fenders being made but not early CJ. Thanks

    I remember finding someone who builds them. They were not listed on a website but were available. I’ll look around see if I can find them. As you probably know, there’s built kits out there too that may work for you.

    I found a place yesterday that sells DIY kits or welded ones. They make rock sliders and body armor as well. When I asked if they made or could make sliders for a six, they got right back to me and said they could. That was on a Sunday. I'll look more into them in the next few days. C&C fabrication.

    I got the C&C Fab DIY rocksliders for my CJ5. Materials and cuts were good quality. The predrilled bolt holes were pretty much in the spots I needed them, but I had to do some clearancing on some areas due to the underseat tool box.
    He didn't weld it like I had wanted due to some confusion, but he made it right. Much easier to talk to on the phone, he used to have a old CJ5.

    cayenne, that's the same place. I read a bunch of reviews on their products. Most were real positive. They make almost everything for the early fives. I'm thinking about the rear body armor with fender flares as well.
