They were only installed on the front wheels. Now, the reason for this is the wheel arches up front attach to the DOOR an not the fender as many people believe. The reason for them to go on the door is so they cover the fender so when you are driving in the mud, open the door and then get out, you will not get your pants dirty - very important for the postie! The passenger side postal ones also have a small circle cut in them for clearance for the filler cap. ---------------------------------snip------------------------ the above seems like the way to go for those who dont want to cut their wheel wells or for those who want to inatall the arches on a 2wd... does anyone have the part numbers for the front 2 Postal van fender flares and know if they are still available?
