    I have a Tacoma work truck that doesn’t have the flares and having a hard time finding mud guards as most are for the flares. Any suggestions?

    ==> Best flaps <== I have found after multiple sets of bragged-about yet brittle-and crack are these universal flaps. Durable, rugged, flexible, stable, and all around quality product for me.

    I discarded the cheesy Toyota fasteners and went with stainless 5/16" lags that eat right through the OEM plastic 1/4" inserts, for mounting.

    I put one on each of the four places for mud flaps.

    These do not come pre-drilled but that is an easy fix with a cardboard template of the hole layout.

    Last flap I will ever need for this particular tiny truck.

    i have OE mud flaps that came factory/port installed on my truck. i removed them after about 14K miles. no cracks or tears, just normal wear. if anyone is interested in them for a fair price, let me know.

    I went with Rokblokz. They work pretty well and bend nicely when I go over deep ruts.

    Rekgens are fairly simple install with their supplied screws & spacers. Each flap requires three screws. No drilling needed. Only issue I had was deciphering which spacer went where. Iirc I think I had to redo a couple after figuring it out. Even then it didn't take longer than half an hour. No issues to report after installing them almost four years ago. So far they're holding up really well.
