Camping World has some, but have any of you any experience and preferences?

Thanks

Try any of your local truck outfitters or hit a heavy duty truck dealer (Mack??)and grab a pair. Definitely worth the effort gettin em on before hitting gravel.

I have the stock "pre formed" dodge ones but I modified them. If you look at them, there 2 pieces, you got the molded piece and a flat piece of rubber/plastic that screws to it. I replaced the flat piece with larger ones I bought from PepBoys. No more crap up the side of the truck from the front or back tires. NOTE: on my 98, the exhaust has kind of warped the rear one a little. and I have them low enough that if you bottom out the front wheel, the flap will drag a little on the road, but that don't happen often.

Our local Peterbuilt shop has tons of different flaps, real cheap. #ad
I tow a 5'er & use the trailer hitch for the mud flaps. I bought a piece of 2" box without the ball & welded on 1/2" angle iron long enough to extend a couple of inches wider than the bumper. The flaps hang from that with stainless fasteners & the angle iron is painted to match. They stick out wide enough to catch all the rocks from the tires & go high enough not to let stuff slip thru between the bumper & the top of the angle iron. They are 24" wide & I had to cut them down a little as they were pretty tall. #ad

I don't have mudflaps(just the Mopar splash guards),but the most awesome mudflaps I've seen are from Northwest Custom. I'm not a flap kinda guy,but these are so attractive looking I may eventually get a set.

I have a set of real nice CAT mudflaps. They are white with black lettering, and I hand painted the "triangle" Cat Yellow.

If ya want I can measure them and tell ya how big they are but they are pretty huge... . if your interested.

Mounted an "Ultra Guard" mud flap using angle iron to the bumper before travelling the Forestry Trunk Road last summer. We carry our mountain bikes on a hitch mounted rack, and there were no problems from the gravel or mud. I wish I could say the same about the dust though #ad
Needless to say, we are looking at the possibility of "bagging" our bikes before we venture onto gravel roads again.

I was checking the price list for the NorthWwest mud flaps. Is that price for 4 or just a pair?

46wdx,

The price for Northwest Custom Mud flaps is per pair. I know there are a little spendy, but you won't find a better looking or better quality mud flap anywhere.

I got mine at a fleet store. I custom cut and fitted mine the way I want them. The front one are about 3 1/2 inches from the ground. The rears are about 5 to 6 inches from the ground.
