Herb, ready to buy flares however I can't seem to find any rear flares for a sliding door van, apparently bushwacker dicontinued and a non sliding door flare (even with my slider extension from quad van) won't clear the door.

Re: The Man Van

How much clearance do you have between the fender and the sliding door? Maybe 2in?

Re: The Man Van

Is the sliding door modified to clear that rear tire?

Re: The Man Van

Yup...lookin' killer Man!

I wish I had the slider...such a cleaner look IMO. But when I get to the big tires, I suppose I'll be glad to have the doors.

Mike, took it up to quadvan and John installed a totally custom 4.25 inch extension, modified the door, the door jamb, and front lower slider. Said he would never do another one that wide. It came out great and i am very happy to have a fully opening sliding door now
