You can make your own, I've done it. Do a posterboard cut and try pattern. The first set was .090" ABS which isn't easy to work with and it was time consuming. After a few years it got brittle and cracked. The current set is made from 1/8" stiff neoprene which works really well. It's very tough but easy to cut and has plenty of flex. It won't crack or break.

Yup exact ones! Ordered off of Amazon. Two factory original bolts and some pushpins hold them in just like the GM factory ones on the '07+ NBS. Almost exact same reason why I got them as I'm getting a FASS soon and plan on mounting my second battery under the bed on the outside of the frame rail. I hate road splash!
What are they made of? Material like those plastic box liners or more rubbery or what?
I wish they ran parallel with the bottom of the frame rail for a cleaner look.

Discription on Amazon says High Density Polyethylene.

"Enhances Your Trucks Appearance. Provides A More Finished Look. Protects From Rocks; Dirt; Salt And Road Debris. Covers Exposed Frame Rail; Leaf Springs And Shocks. Installs In 15 Minutes. Limited Lifetime Warranty. Made Of Durable High Density Polyethylene."

Good find Dustin:thumb: I'll have to see if they fit or make ones for duallys.

I meant parallel as in flush with the bottom of the rail so it hides it.

Oh i got ya. well its better than nothing. my inner wheel wells have taken a beating over 200k. ill have to sand the pain down under there, paint it, then throw my covers back on. they are alot like the aftermarket plastic front inner fenders. thinner than stock factory stuff and very pliable. i wouldnt say rubbery though.

Haha, sorry. I've worked with that material so I didn't think about what you were actually saying. Yes, like Corbin said, it's a plastic.

Way to go Russ, not everybody is going to know what HDPE is :roflmao: (part of the engunmanear curse I guess!)



To those who got the liners, did you have to drill any holes or anything? Or just screw in and push pins?

ya know, for all that schooling, i figured you would be able to read! or is the old age getting to your eyes already? :spit: :hug:. Dustin posted a little ways back he didnt have to do any drilling or make holes, just had to heat a few spots up with a heat gun to clear his hitch brackets under the truck

reading.... that's that right to left top to bottom thing right? And yes james, the eyes seam to be failing me lately, see what you get to look forward to in a few years haha! After looking back, he did say you have to drill holes in the plastic liner for those of us with the fender flares and for those who are not cool enough to pull our fenders... cough cough :hug:

Lowered truck problems :(

Suspension at full droop its hitting pretty bad I'll have to trim a bunch off. Overall they fit halfway decent the only issue is the fit between the fender and fender flare its pretty poor.

Got mine in a couple days ago, they were frozen pretty stiff, had a bear of a time putting the one in so i massaged it with a heat gun to get some pliability then they went in like butter. We just got a good dump of snow yesterday so it was perfect timing.
