We have the factory rock sliders. After being in the mud without flaps, it's MISERABLE. Are there any mudflaps that work with the rock sliders?

I think they are trying to tell you if you use your rock bars theres a good chance you will tear off the mudflaps. Yes they fit. I also put my tube steps back on under the rock guards with custom made brackets in almost the same stock location, 4 bolts and they are off. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
tmiller, can you post some pics as to how you did this. My sig other has the H3 and would like the option of having both.

you can use the factory ones... even though it sais you cannot! There were earlier posts about this and other have done it.
Disclaimer: I have not tried it yet, so this is info from another post, not my experience.
Also, some have broken off their mudflaps due to mud/ rocks.

I would rather spend $100 on some flaps that work than having to pay to get both fenders repainted. Are there any custom mud flap companies out there?
I am thinking of putting the 3M Clear Bra on the flairs and getting the usky flaps. The GM flaps do not help much.

Im new to puting pics. on the computer. Maybe my kid can do it. Just take the mounting bracket and cut the end off that mounts to the frame and redrill the holes in the tube step that mounts the bracket to tilt it up to the rock bar piece that has 2 holes in it . Drill the bracket to line up with one of the holes in the rock bar and bolt it. That is for the front bracket. The back bracket you do the same but add an aprox. 3 inch piece of flat bar to tie them in. (because I mounted it by the flat step area) and at the very ends use a threaded bar and drill through both bars and tie together. To do the first side it took me about an hour and a half to figure it out then the otherside went much easer in about an hour. and it looks factory. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
OMG Please Please please.......
Sounds good, but I have to see it. Completed.
See this post on how to post pics
THANK YOU!
