Because the wheel base was stretched 4", I moved the quarters toward the rear of the truck 1.5" to help offset the extended amount. This way the wheel openings won't be in the back of the quarter panels, a look that I think is ugly.
I marked the fender flare position with a sharpie and then put some tape along the quarters to use as a guide while cutting. I prefer a 4.5" angle grinder with thin cutting disc for this and all sheet metal cutting tasks. After that, I fit the flares into place and screwed them into position.
