Dang, I'm late on this. I've been looking for a set. This still upsets me that bushwacker discontinued this product. Too bad someone who had a nice set already wouldn't make up a mold and remake them.

According to V10Crew in his build thread .... https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...st-done-5.html

The Fender Flares are the Bushwhacker Extend a Fender flares, my buddy owns a body shop and ordered them direct from Bushwacker here in Portland OR. Bushwacker can still make any flare they offered it just might take a few weeks to get them. You need to find a dealer that will take the time and call Bushwacker, they are available.

Same here, I'll buy 3 sets. If there's a big enough order, Bushwhacker will probably make them. They should fit on '78-'79 Bronco's, too. If someone does set this up, some members on the Bronco forum might be interested, too.
I had these flares on my previous '79 and they held up great. I sold them dirt cheap long after I had sold the truck. They sat behind the garage for years. Now I wish I had never sold them!
I used to belong to a Dodge/Cummins forum, and there was a guy who used set up group purchases for parts on that forum. If I wasn't working so many hours & on-call 24/7, I'd step in and do it, but I simply can't. Just 13 more years to retirement!

Yeah, that seems a tad high. I remember buying some a few years ago for about $300 with shipping included.

trap ... i know they are cut outs ...
just sayin flares can be modified to fit from more common years to our trucks.
Possibly the ones you want could be bought for an 80' up truck and trimmed for our body style.?? Maybe they are not available for any year.
just a thought.
