One thing I didn't mention in the video is I opted not to use the fender protector that comes in the kit. It's similar to the clear film protector that is on the rear fender behind the wheels. It's applied with water and cured over 24 hours. Seemed like a bit of a pain to me and I don't plan to ever remove the flaps so I didn't include that step. Just an FYI.

Epic,

Great video as usual. Maybe one thing to mention on the install is when installing the front drivers side flap crank your wheels to the left......and to the right when doing the passenger side. Just gives a little more room to work. Great job.

I really like the way the front husky flaps fit on the front of my KR. The rears need some additional engineering/moulding to fit better. I actually added a screw to the bottom of the indentation in the flap, up through the factory hole that holds the fender flair to the bottom of the fender. Really tightens up the installation.

The 'protector' strips were a PITA, though.

Nice! I'm thinking about them, but want to get my 35's on first to check clearance.

Kevin,
I see you have a Dually.......what was the part number for your front and rear flaps? When I put in factory flares and DRW it said not available. Hmmmm!!

I thinking im going to go with the more flexable duraflaps on the front alteast to keep all the mud off the running boards and door channels.

I need to get some on mine fast. 1500 miles, these Michelines are rock pickers and I already have a few chips on one of the lower rocker panels.

I think the Duraflaps look wider than the Husky's and should provide a little more protection. You will appreciate that in the Arkansas backwoods.
