Don't boo me off the stage, but I'm thinking about getting mud flaps. Does anyone have a pair of these that they didn't end up using?
Mud Flaps?
- Thread starter WLDRIDE
- Start date
I use removable flaps. Off for the trail, on to prevent hassle from police.
Mud flaps are a great idea on-road. It sucks being behind a vehicle like a TJ with big tires that kick up all sorts of crap.
OP
Anyone have pictures of this particular parts kit installed? Curious as to how it looks on a TJ/LJ...
They're out there but I don't know where to buy them since I made my own. How I did mine probably wouldn't interest you since I welded my mount to the frame. There are kits that bolt-on from what I understand.
I'm either using that or a clone. Don't recall how much I paid but I'd guess only $60 or so a couple of years ago.
Only because Quadratec is selling it can I believe anyone would dare ask $120 for that kit. I just bought a pair of heavy-duty 12x18x1/4" mud flaps today on ebay for $15.76 including shipping, the same ones I ordered 4-5 years ago. I tore one of my mud flaps off out in JV a couple weeks ago after forgetting to remove it so I now need to replace one of the rubber flaps that tore off the support lol.
The other parts including the supports would cost $15 or so from Home Depot where I bought my parts. The only significant difference in theirs and mine is their mounting bases are bolted on, I welded mine on.

This is what we use around here. Your local truck shop will have them. Just cut to the width you want.

No longer available on Amazon but this is what I bought a few years ago. Delivered price was under $50.

forgot to remove them on Rocky track just a month ago and ripped one off, embarrassed to say I've done that twice over about six years

I bought generic bolt on removable mud flaps for my rear tires.
I think it was a trailer hitch kind of shop that I ended up buying it from.
It looks almost exactly as the Teraflex link above, except a bit cheaper, and I had to cut down the width of the flap myself (which I preferred, as I made it extra wide).
For some reason, if I have to have mud flaps (legally I do), I personally like the look of extra wide ones better. In my head, I'm hoping the extra width will make the police think I'm trying extra hard, and will look the other way if they see I don't have front mud flaps.
I definitely prefer the removable mud flaps over the permanent ones.

If permanent rear ones are what you’re looking for I found these on quad. They look pretty clean If you’re not running Rubi flares.
From what I see, They do look pretty clean If you’re not running Rubi flares and prefer all season car tires.
I have a set of OEM rear mud flaps I’d be happy to sell for $10 plus shipping. They’re rather close to the rear tire, so I wouldn’t attempt to use them for anything larger than a 32” tire or maybe a small 33” tire though. I removed them because I expected them to rub 35” tires excessively.
Are they the hard molded kind or the rubber flappy kind? If the flappy kind, I've been looking for a set for a while .. here is a picture .. if this is the kind you have, I'll happily take it off your hands!
