Are mudflaps worth buying?

[RENODMAX]

My rockers tend to get hammered and was wondering if mudflaps will help or if the rockers still get just as bad with them?

I had to do mine and they seem to have helped a bit but the rockers still get pounded about mid front door. I wish I had them on from tjhe begining now my rockers are cheweed up.

when i first bought my truck i had them on, they did help. i used to sell a ton of the Husky Liner ones to contractors. they loved em. also they fit the best hands down!!

I have the molded ones from GM with the bowtie on them. They do a good job of keeping my windshield clean in the mud is there biggest benefit to me

These are the kind I have. My only complaint with them is that they are rubbing a spot on my fender flare.

I use silicone where they make contact with the body. They don't move on me

I have the Husky ones on my truck...they help protect the area directly behind the wheel to about 18" back.

mud flap are defiantly worth it, it saves alot of paint from being removed by rocks

they help on the trailers too. my cargo trailer was hammered with rocks from the van tires, and the camper started getting them too when I was pulling it with the van. Once we got the truck with mudflaps, no new rock dentss

I'm going to sand/fill/repaint my dinged up spots and want to sort of protect it

Do spray on bedliner on the rockers.

Do spray on bedliner on the rockers.

and color matched looks good also

If we dont have mudflaps on we can get a ticket where i live

 

[RENODMAX]

How much is it for just the rockers to get sprayed on average??

Hey Jordan there is also a new product called rocker fares they may help too. I have been thinkin bout them but I want to see them on someone elses truck first

I just put my Duraflaps back on the front after having them off for about a year. The rockers are definitely staying much cleaner (stone driveway tests it every time it rains).

I live on a dirt road and have to use mudflaps to save the paint on my truck. I have running boards and they save my rockers. To save the rear behind the rear wheels I have the factory mudflaps that I added rubber flaps to the bottom. To keep the stones off you have to run the flaps really close to the ground. The closer to the ground you get the further back it will protect.

I made my own flaps they are 12" wide and hang ~6-7" off the ground. That is as low as you can go or they hit the curb if you have to go over them. I have very few rock chips and BFG MT through some large rocks.
