Mud flaps

What did you guys do to mount them securley.

Im wanting to put some smaller 9x11 or something mud flaps with a ford emblem on them.

But i want them to on there very well so as not flop around alot.

Thank you

I didn't mount mine, but from what I can remember they're mounted to angle iron.
If I remember later today I'll take a image of how they're mounted.

I'm kinda interested in this too. I want them up in front of the tail pipe, but I need some pritty hefty sized ones to do any good at all...

I like the top one. It sticks out a tad farther than i want mine to. How did they mount it specifically?

Obiously screwed it to the fender lip. But what about the part that protrudes farther into the wheel well. How was that suported to reduce the flopping around?


Thanks.

They are both FORD OEM mudflaps. They are both held on with the included sheet metal screws. The mudflap is rigid enough there is no need for additional support




the smaller ones are # E7TZ 16A550 And are 12x18
