MUd Flaps

Go buy some regular larger mud flaps and find some diamond tread plating and make your own by riviting the paltes on the flaps it gives it a total custom look you can't buy in the stores.

JD, Check out RoadRats they are on my New Years list as santa forgot them.

They are made by a company called "futurack" thats about all they could tell me, not sure where they are and they don't seem to have a web site. RoadRat
The important part is the bracket to hold them. Bolting or screwing them to the inner fender is a joke. They need a step back to keep them from tearing off if you back into anything. ks

I ordered the Dee Zee S/S dually flaps, but when they came in they had aluminum diamond plate weights. I also thought they were not quite wide enough. I did like the mounting brackets. Made my own brackets out of 1/4'' aluminum using theirs for a template. Bought flaps from a truck shop. Rubber antisail with smooth back. Cut to fit (19 1/2'') put a 6''x19 1/2'' polished S/S weights on the bottom. Coated the brackets with bed liner (from a can)& they look sharp if I do say so myself.Cut aluminum from a old reefer fan a trailer shop though out, freebee. S/S was found at a restaurant going out of business freebee #2.Flaps about 20.00 bucks one can of bed liner 7.99 nuts & bolts maybe 5.00 bucks.

I just bought Dodge's new heavy rubber mud flaps. No chrome or polished stainless, just a good rubber flap. I don't like the hardware kit that came with it but that can be changed. Less than thirty bucks out-the-door.

I think this is what your looking for.



I bought the rubber flaps from Kragen (Schucks/Checkers) I made the hangers, I got the chrome anti-sails and skulls @ a place called the truckers toy box in Ontario, Ca. Any truck stop should have them.

I have the Cummins/Ram's Head mud flaps I bought from the Cummins online store last year but never mounted them. Where is there a good place to drill to mount these suckers? Is the fender skirt tough enough or is there some metal back there?
