Flappage

[killian]

I'm seroiusly considering mud flaps, at least for the front if not for all 4. My front tires are spewing trails up the rear fender wells and today my passenger side, front tire picked up a big rock and left me with a nice ding in the paint. Damn, that really pisses me off. Anyway, Mud flaps. Something for you folks to think about.

Thanks for the heads up... Sorry about the paint :-(

H2's are really bad about this, too. However, mud flaps really get in the way during off-road use, so it really depends on what you're planning to do with your truck.

That happens with my SUT. Since I put the 37's on, they throw out larger rocks than the AT's did. If you plan to off road, I would stay away from flaps. they will get torn off and may wreck wher you mounted them to. You may try putting on the rock rails or side steps. most of the rocks that come off of mine hit those. They stick out just enough to keep the rocks where they belong... off my paint!

...or maybe you could try this product from 3M (http://www.motortrend.com/features/care/112_0401_cc/)

There was a lot of talk about this on the H2 side. 3m also makes a clear product that can be cut to fit along areas of the body. A great idea if you use wider tires. Poke around the H2 side and you'll find. I just don't feel like looking right now.
