I couldn't see spending a lot of money on mudflaps, but I wanted the =
body protection, so I rigged up something pretty good. I have diamond =
plate bed rails and tailgate cover, so to match, I bought square pieces =
of diamond plate from the local Auto Parts Club ($15 for 2 sets). I cut =
and bent them to fit so that the would extend out from the wheelwell a =
couple of inches to the side and bottom. I rounded the corners, and =
drilled three holes along the bottom and bolted them to the inside of =
the wheelwells. I bought 2 sets of front and rear rubber mudflaps (I got =
the ones that say "Back off!" with the Tasmanian Devil on 'em), and some =
stainless steel flattop screws with nylon filled nuts. I cut the =
mudflaps off so that they are about 6" off the ground, and mounted them =
to the diamond plates. I cut a small strip of diamond plate to go under =
the nuts on the inside of the wheelwells, and countersunk the screws so =
they are flush. Looks really good on my truck, and they work really =
well, no nicks or scratches on the sides.
