The flare is not broken, it is an extension on the flare that has come away from its screw. Look at pic 2 front flare you will notice a 2" piece of flat coming out from the bottom of the flare. It has extensions because this rangie is fitted with a GQ front diff and an 80 series rear diff. Both diffs are 4" wider than a rangie diff and the tyres stick out more than an ordinary tyre. To keep it legal I had to cover the tyre with the extended flare.
OKA374 The trouble with the transfer case probably came from the vibration caused by the angle of the GQ rear diff to the transfer. GQ rear diff is in the centre not offset like rangie diffs and I don't know of anyone who has solved the vibration problem, hence fitting the 80 series diff which is offset.
