    I've done so many mods to this truck it turned out to be a Dodge Ram 2500! WOW was that expensive!!
    Got tired of replacing them every two to three years. So I removed them. I was gonna use the last two for the "Towing Mirror" mod by 05silverTaco, but that aren't flat enough. I might give them away for who ever wants to pay S&H. I have front and rear right side only. The other two (left F & R) tore off somewhere down the road sometime back.

    I Keep thinking about the flaps on my old 94, anyone know if that style can be adapted to our truck?

They sit in my garage for if there is a rule about having them either here in cali or in colorado.

    My rears are still on. Had to take the fronts off because my new tires rubbed on them.

    Trimmed 3" off the fronts. They rubbed on every speed bump and didn't want to cause serios damage if they got pulled off.

    I hate them mud flaps. They hit when you hit big bumps on the trail. I also think it looks funny when your truck is lifted with big mud tires. Idk, it just doesn't look right. I threw mine away and is on my way for rocker panel protection spray.

    Took 3" off the fronts, I think 4" would have been better.

    I find they are just way to stiff. I break one every winter so I gave up and un-bolted 'em.
