Rubber mud flaps vs splash guards for Rebel

[RAMDJ]

How many of you have found full rubber mud flaps for the Ram Rebel? I think the look of rubber flaps would look great on the rebel but after a few quick google searches, I wasn't able to find any that I liked. Does anyone know of somewhere I can get easy to install custom flaps.

Second, what is everyones thoughts on the splash guards. Does any one have a profile picture of their rebel with the splash guards? They seem to be very inexpensive at $50 per two. Also, with he rebel package, do you get the ones with the fender flares or without?

Gatorback mudflaps is what you want. Full rubber with a steel plate for durability.

I am looking for something I don't have to drill and are ready to go. I did find https://duraflap.com. Not sure if anyone has an experience with this company.

Its one hole per flap takes 5 seconds. And it’s through the plastic inner fender. I had all four of mine on in 30 -40 min

do you have the full rear wheel liner or just the two partials ?
The Husky will not fit the partials

I do like those gatorbacks. My question is do they come pre-drilled with the screw holes? Also what size works best for the front vs back.

I have the full wheel liners as the truck has 4-corner air suspension.

I did not install the Gators...had dealership do it b/c I did not have a drill that could fit in the space between the tire and quarter panels. I need to get a right angle drill eventually.

But there are 3-4 holes in each flap and an extra that you have to drill through plastic I believe, and not the metal.

Another item of importance is when you lower the truck to Enter/Exit via air suspension those flaps are about an inch or 2 off the ground.

Are you supposed to get the ones with the fender flares or the non fender flares with the Rebel?

Yedi I went to the mopar site and i don't see the side steps you have. I like those. Could you provide a parts number or website

Can the mopar flaps be painted? Do they collect water/dirt in the pockets? I love the gatorback but pricey.

Yedi, I'm still on the fence with those or these. https://www.realtruck.com/ici-black-magnum-rt-steps/R184321P2019Y2712MA.html
both look great and are about the same price. So you didn't have an issue with the splash guards hitting the steps?

I just got mine in today. Did you do the drilling on the bottom or just leave it as is with the screws?

Also, does anyone know what this is?


I am assuming it is a rivet tool.

that's a plastic rivet gun. I didn't drill any holes, just used the factory locations and screws. they aren't going anywhere

I was assuming it was the rivet tool. And you left the rivets out all together? I was debating on just leaving those out as the bottom rivet is what they want you to drill according to the instructions.
