Mud Flaps. Are there non OEM Flexible flaps out there?

[Ma\'Deuce]

Hi all. Because of all the talk of breaking the stock mud flaps off because they are somewhat rigid, has anyone found a supplier of rubber flaps?

Hello fourtofour:

you must be a dealer or someone who is satisfied with a poorly designed product. Or maybe worse you H3 has never been in the mud or snow. You must be another urban pretender who use his H3 to get his morning's coffee.

FORGET THE MUD FLAPS - THEY DO NOT WORK.

I only had to see one of the H3 in our lot with mud up to the roof. thanks guys and primal hunter for making this post a comical one.

That's what's great about this forum, information and entertainment all together.

There are a few videos listed here that the factory flaps just bent back.I havent seen any posts of them breaking ?.They do come off easy for major offroading,also you might as well remove steps and the licence plates for hardcore wheelin.

You're a fukking moron! Apparently an "honest discussion" is one where everyone agrees with you.

I will run along now and will not be back.

Adios you losers!!

I hope you mean it. Buh-bye now!

The above discussion is why one has to be careful on the internet. There are a lot of idiots out there who have never seriously been off road in sand, mud, or snow. They sit around and are dishonest in their comments. I have had both brand of mudflaps. The problems is that the tires stick out further than the mudflap. At best, the mudflaps can only reduce a small amount of whatever. Save your money for the fender flares - and don't be the first to buy. Wait and learn from others before buying. It is so sad that the urban pretenders out there can't be honest. Best of luck.

Thanks, me too.

As far as the flaps go, the front huskys do a great job on keeping muck off the side panels and door handles. They help reduce the fender hits, but the fenders will still get plastered (but just not as much).

The Mud flaps work better than No mud flaps they match plastic and the bend back without breaking.
Go back to the Jeep forums Troll

I saw an H2 last Feb in VT that had a good solution. Oversized heavy-duty rubber flaps were connected to a carabiner clip which was then fastened to an eye screw. Couldn't tell exactly how/where the eye screw/bolt was attached. But it worked great. I was behind the driver, road was covered in slush, and no rooster tail. The setup made for easy removal of flaps for off-roading.

Damn it, again!!!

Your right, anyone that has or does own a 442 must have a great mind

[Sewie]

No I don't.

I'm an urban dude, but better than being the poor hillbilly primal-hunter troll type. I used no flaps for a while. After installing factory flaps the spray and muck was reduced some.

I have no plans to install mudflaps designed for an 18 wheeler.

There was some guy trying to sell his flexible flaps here awhile back.

All of this talk about mudflaps, is missing a major problem, that is that both the factory and the Husky mudflaps do not work!!

I have had both and it is my observation that there is very little reduction. Save your money!!!
