I have a 2001 XJ and the fender liner was getting caught up on the tire everytime I turned the wheels so I ripped it all out haha! I sprayed the entire inside w rocker guard but noticed the huge area inside the fender by the door hinges! That's going to fill up w mud and affect the hinges;
Any suggestions for filling that gap w something other than mud?
I was thinking expanding foam:)

Thx

Any pics? I'm not an XJ guy. If you are serious about the foam, it's a horrible idea. I'd either cut up the old inner fender or a mudflap myself and hold it in place with some self tapping screws or rivets. Screws would at least have it removable for semi-annual cleaning.

Agreed. Spray foam is going to cause moisture to get trapped in there and you'll rust out in no time. You can buy mud flaps for transports pretty cheap and they should be large enough to cut to fit.
