Mud Flaps or No Mud Flaps?

[Rammit]

I went with the gatorbacks. Very happy with how they look and how they protect. With the larger tires and off-road sludge that I have to drive through at work, flaps are a must.

What size did you go with?
23 or 26?

I went with the 23”. I thought about the longer ones but wasn’t sure they would look right. The fronts are about 8.75” from the ground and the tears are about 11”. They help a lot with the amount of splashing under the rockers and the rear too. Very easy to install and good fit.

Thank you! If I do not like my husky's I will return them and get gators!

Even though I despise the look of mud flaps, I'm considering getting the WeatherTech ones to protect the paint and to keep ice from building up on the power running boards this winter. Do any of you people getting mud flaps live in areas that receive significant snowfall?

I put mud flaps on the first new vehicle I had just out of high school (Chevy S-10 Blazer) and they didn't even last the first winter before getting torn off. We get quite a bit of snow here in the U.P. of Michigan which does take out a few mud flaps, but it's the "ice turds" that build up on them that cause the most problems.

Went with gatorbacks on mine. Had it in the rain several times and they do a great job of keeping the crap off my truck. Much better than the smaller plastic ones I had on my f150

I live in SE Michigan and have not had a problem on previous trucks. We get snow but nothing like in the U.P.

I went with the Husky mud flaps. They fit well and seem to be built to last. Although I think they look good I primarily got them to protect the truck.

Do you have a picture of them installed?

They're a must for me up in the north country where we often see 200+ inches of snow per year. we also take the snowmobiles up to Tug Hill where they got over 25 feet last year.

Those look nice, might have to pull the trigger on a set.

Do you mind that they are not flush with the fender flares. Just had mine done and it bugs me but maybe I am being to anal.

I personally like it that way as it protects more from splashing on the truck (slush, mud, rocks)...

I like the look and think it helps protect.
