TJ DEFENDER XC INNER FENDER INSTALLATION
Thank you for purchasing Poison Spyder
DeFender™ XC Inner Fenders for your Jeep.
Installation is fairly simple. However, some
subsequent procedures such as re-mounting
under-hood components are outside the purview
of these instructions. If you are not confident in
your mechanical skills or that you will be able
to figure out and execute solutions to these
problems on your own, please seek the help of a
professional to perform the installation. Please
read through these entire instructions before
proceeding with installation.

Please check your packages immediately upon
arrival to ensure that everything listed is included,

IMPORTANT: Completely install and remove the

or powder coating it. This will allow you to check
for fitment or do any clearancing or fitting ahead
of time, to reduce the chance of damage to the
finish during final installation. Poison Spyder
Customs Inc. is not responsible for costs for or
damage to paint or powder coat finish under any
circumstances, including paint or powder coat of
incorrectly shipped or defective parts.
INSTALLATION NOTES
• Note that the two sets are mirror images of
each other. The pieces are not individually
identified, however their orientation may
be quickly determined by dry-fitting them
together. The triangular piece is the top
plate. The roughly rectangular piece is the
rearward plate. The odd-shaped piece is the
inner panel that faces the side of the engine
(the odd-shaped cut-out is to accomodate
the spring/shock tower).
• Install the 3 pieces of each inner fender set
on to the Jeep. Depending on your Jeep’s
configuration and how much equipment has
already been removed, it may be possible
to pre-assemble the Inner Fender before
bolting it in. Otherwise the three pieces will
have to be installed one by one.
• Use the 10-32 X 1/2 SS Button Head Cap
Screws (with flat washers and lock nuts) to
attach the pieces of the Inner Fender to each
other.
• Use the 10-32 X 3/4 SS Button Head Cap
Screws (with flat washers and lock nuts) to
attach the Inner Fender to the DeFender™
(along the top and rearward edges).
• Use the #10 SS Pan Head Sheet Metal
Screw to attach the Inner Fender to the
side of the Jeep’s grille. The hole is already
present in the Inner Fender, however a pilot
hole will need to be drilled into the grille.
Use a 9/64” drill bit to drill the pilot hole, then
carefully thread in the sheet metal screw with
a Phillips head screw driver. Be careful not
to over-tighten and strip the sheet metal or
the screw.
• When assembling the Inner Fenders, leave
each fastener loose until everything is in
place, then finish tightening all fasteners.
