    Can anyone assist me with figuring out how to fix this?
    I went too slow off a curb and it pushed up vertically on the mudflap and stripped the mounting points.
    I'm trying to install the rokblokz flaps as a replacement flap and they're not able to thread on tightly/stay threaded on. I did some searching on the forum but couldn't find any similar examples or clear directions on how to proceed. Anyone able to help? Thanks in advance.

    You lost the inserts/anchors that go in those places. Just replace them and the OEM flap should go right back on easily. It's happened to me over the last 190k miles and it replaces quite easily.
