they didn't get the job done, so I put Dodge mudflaps on both front and
rear. This does the job pretty well, except really deep mud and pot
holes, even then it is minimal. I bought The flaps through my dealer for
less than $ 20.00, I got the flat rubber ones, because the molded ones
wouldn't work with the flares.
