I have the same problem... the metal tabs have to be in the right spot and you should be able to just pop it back on. I know on the bottom there is a hole where you need to pop it in on the bottom (on the rear). I just lost a flare on the road tonight so I have to order some more... :(

How do you fix a popped out jeep fender flare on a 1988?

Pretty easy, there are holes inside and in the back of the flare that match up with holes in the steel fender, mounting hardware is screws from inside the fender to plastic nuts inside the flare, but any nut and bolt that will fit through the hole will work, you may need washers on the flare side though.


Can you put the fender flares back on once you remove them on a 1999 Jeep Cherokee Sport?

Double sided tape Sheet metal screws Pop-Rivets Yes, I've had the same problem with my 2000 Sport. I just got them to go tight against the body last week. Locate the 5 or 6 bolts just inside the fenderwell. Spray them with penetrating oil! Wait a few minutes then use a deep, metric socket to unscrew nuts. Some bolts might have flare keepers. Pull them off first. Watch out, their sharp. After backing off nuts a little, fit fender in between brackets and body of jeep aligning tabs on fender to tabs on brackets. Tighten nuts and slip those flare keepers back on-if any.

That happened on my 99'. its a pain to get back on but if you bend the metal bracket that holds the fender on to the right depth between it and the fender itself the fender will slide back into place but you have to do it all at one time or it wont go on right.
