What's your budget? Is your rig 2WD or 4WD? Bushwacker offers some bolt-ons/screw-ons but I think discontinued the Dentside pocket flares.

However, yad be a badazz **** if you ran these on the street:
... 78 Ford

I know of no OEM flares. You might get lucky at the JY.

I recall LMC and NPD offer some universal flares. Also try JC Whitney. They too will likely be universal.

A thot on my end, 2WD rigs have rather generous wheel wells. I run 35s on my 4x4 and they narily stick out of the fender's vertical plane. What the heck are you running or planning to run on your 2WD??
