    i am looking for some new mug flaps that are half the size. I have a slight lift with 275/70/17's and I had to remove my big ass stock flaps. Anyone have any suggestions?

    Were they rubbing?

    Husky has some that are shorter and a bit wider up front. They allow a *bit* more clearance from what I've read. The matching tears are the same length.

    Some guys here prefer Rokblox (sp?). They're not rigid so they flap rally style, I believe.

    I'm about to upgrade to the huskys myself. I'm 3" lift with 265/75r16, and while I don't need the length reduction, I could use a little more side spray protection.

    Perhaps others will chime in, as I'm curious about better flaps up front too.

    I got Rokbloks. They flex but are pretty damn rigid. They don't flap in the wind.

    You can barely see them in these pics.

    Lined up the holes on the truck and transferred them to the flaps, drilled them out, bolts through the holes. Done. :thumbsup:

    Are those Husky's shorter than stock and will they fit 2015? I hit my stock flaps almost everyday on some speed bumps but I don't want no mud flaps

    Do you still like your mud flaps, RearViewMirror? I'm considering those. I like the Huskey X-Act floor mats, so I thought I'd look at their mud flaps also.

    I have the husky fronts, about 3.5" shorter, easy swap, looks good. I left the stock rears on

    Honestly they are still sitting in the box on the back seat of my truck. Haven't gotten around to putting them on yet.

    Same thing I plan on doing with mine. I'm fine with the back but the front flaps look like dog ears to me hanging off the truck. And even though my truck sits higher than stock I still bang down on them pretty hard off road. I'm surprised they are still attached to the truck actually.

    And they fit the 2015 fine? Husky website says their for 2004-2014 and not 2015.

    yeah perfect fit. They seem hard, but are surprisingly flexible when needed.

    Order extra clips too, you'll see them on Amazon with the flaps.
