FYI - I like the husky mud flaps

Ive had weather tech mud flaps on the '08 truck I had, I just installed the husky flaps on my almost 2 year old '11 (I dunno why I waited so long).

I like the husky better than the weather techs. Mounting is slightly more involved, it took 1 hour as opposed to 30 minutes for the weather techs. The only drilling really necessary is through the plastic fender liners. You could drill a hole for one mounting screw but I decided just to leave that one out. They seem plenty sturdy to me.

I know it's not a huge discovery here but I finally have an opinion on something and wanted to spit it out.

They're a little bigger and I like the way they look.

The cam action clamp thing that weathertech uses for mounting always stood out to me and looked funny.

Also check out duraflap mudflaps. I considered them all and found the duraflaps to meet my needs better than either Husky, or Weathertech.
They are all good, just need to see what works for your needs the best.

Here y'all go. I threw in a pic of my truck and trailer for kicks. The truck, as always, is absolutely gorgeous. The husky flaps are really nice.

So that's what a 98,000 mile truck looks like; brand new!
Nice addition.

Thanks y'all. I have to remove a CT scanner from a hospital in Marinette, wi and then a cardiac cath lab from a hospital in fort Wayne, in next week.

In that trailer is all the tools and rigging gear I need.

12 sheets of hard board (floor protection)
4 sheets of plywood
A lot of 4x4 and 4x6 blocks
My tool box (home made but like a big snap on)
Pair of gantry dollies and a pair of cabinet dollies (they're like roll-a-lifts but better)
Big red (2000 pound capacity two wheel dolly type thing)
2large pallets made for the equipment, 4 smaller pallets
Pallet jack
Material lift (genie lift)
Hand truck
About 20 boxes, shrink wrap, two rolls foam wrap, tape

Needless to say, it's full and heavy. Probably overloaded but she has about 50,000 miles on her (trailer) and is holding up well.

Tanks for the props guys.
