Mud Flaps

Does anyone have a set of OEM mud flaps that they took off that they're looking to get rid of? I ripped both of the mud flaps off the passenger side (lesson learned: I should have removed them before forcibly removing them backing up through a massive pile of brush and mulch).
I would like to replace them with stock (without paying exorbitant dealership prices).
If you only have the passenger side, that would be ideal.

 

Never sold mine, so if you want them get me $60.00 for all 4 and you pay shipping, here is the link to the post where I put then up for sale

Post 499, PM if interested.....

Kinda related.

But will the shorter rear (4x4) mud flaps fit in place of the longer front mudflaps?

 

The mounting points and shape of the front flaps are different from the rear flaps. You might be able to get them on, but they wouldn't be very secure and they definitely wouldn't look right.

 

Not sure why my 2014 Tacoma DC TRD Sport 4x4 has much longer OEM front mud flaps than my 2012 DC SR5 4x4 or my 2006 DC 2wd SR5 had, but, besides looking silly, the myriad of posts regarding tearing factory flaps off prompted me to replace all four with the Husky mud flap with just 100 miles on my truck. They fit as well as OEM, seem stronger and are definitely shorter. It is a plus for me the rears have no 4X4 markings. I know it is 4WD and the big white lettering to let everyone else know just looked gaudy for my tastes.

 

I added Husky's today. The fronts are a few inches shorter, but the rears are only perhaps 1/2 inch sorter than the factory mud flaps. I was happy to get rid of the tacky white 4x4 graphics though - was the only white thing anywhere on the truck, and I don't care if people know it's 2 or 4 wheel drive. Happy with the way the Husky flaps look.

 

Pics?

 

Kinda what I assumed. Thanks :beer:

 

I took mine off for a while, but realized that they do help keep the truck clean, so I shortened them about 3" and like the new look a lot better.

 

+1 I put husky flaps on a week after I bought my 2013. Things are beefy, a factory fit, and don't blow like boat sails in the wind like factory flaps.

 

What's the reasoning for cutting them? Looks?

 

Front ones are so low they can be ripped off easily. Before I trimmed mine, they used to drag over good sized speed bumps. Backing up, get them caught between some object and your tire, and it gets yanked right off.

 

I believe in being unique. I am having a set made up from ChaineMaille. I made a set for a semi driver many moons ago, he loved em. So i thought id do the same for my tacoma! Pics will follow upon completion

 

Thanks for the info.

 

Mine are on...I've had way too many rock chips from people that choose to run without them.

Plus I like how they keep rocks and dirt from hitting my own truck.

It would be cool if they made quick disconnect flaps for bigger obstacles offroad.

on until one rips, then off...

 

Think ill keep mine on. Ill sacrifice the cleaner look. Keep the paint on it.

 

mine were taken off the night I got home from the dealership. most truck nowadays don't have them on anyways. next time you're out and about, look at all the other big name vehicle makers. dodge, ford, chevy, gmc, most do not have flaps.


that and they rip off very easily

 

Took 2 inches off. Finally no more dragging over speed bumps, better clearance off-road. Fewer incidences of getting pulled off.

 

Fronts are off and the backs have been cut 3 inches.
