I have the Huskies as well. No problems as far as I can tell but I haven't been through a winter yet (I am nervous about that as well and if doing yourself, you will need an angle drill adapter if you aren;t pulling the wheels). The tape is a good idea but after damp for awhile, it may depart. I'd go for the trim screws idea.

I have the Husky flaps and used silicone between the body, flap, and on the screw. Hopefully I've not introduced a path for moisture. But the new steel that is used now is fairly rot resistant. Midwest cancer seems to be on the downcline....

I didn't pull the wheels off, just turn them all the way to give me enough clearance.

I also dabbed some grease on the holes and screws prior to tightening. Perhaps I should check it out and put some silicone or trim screws.

I put the huskys on my H2 and used some of the plastic push pins and redrilled the holes to line up with the factory mounting points. I never used the screws provided and they are still on 2 years later and even stayed durring the Mud bog with 20 pounds of crap hanging from them.
I have never looked at the inner mounting points on a H3 but if it can be done go for it.

How'd you do the rear flaps without removing the wheels? My buddy installed them for me (he owns a body shop) and he had to use a right angle drill attachment. I now have a similar attachment in my tool arsenal.

For rear wheel since, all fasteners are in plastic, I took drill bit, heated with a butane torch and pushed thru plastic. Voila, hole ready for fastener.

Can you install husky mudflaps with the factory rocker bars? I remember somehow that the oem one weren't compatible or something.
