Wheelwell covers
Do any of you run wheelwell covers? The plastic pieces that screw into your fender which prevent mud, etc get on the inside of the wheelwells (radiator support, etc)?
I just took mine off and everything was clean on the inside. I just had one that was flapping and my wheel would hit it when i turn so i removed them.
Thinking about putting some fenderwell exit headers on the Bronco one day so they would have to be removed anyways. I was thinking bout putting some rubberized undercoating under each wheelwell too.
Just trying to see who uses them or doesnt use wheelwell covers.

I have them on my 79. On my 75 pickup I don't have them. They help save the cab mounts for sure. Mine are rusty as all get out. Snow and crap builds up inside the door jam as well. When I do the cab swap I will be making sure I have them.

I took them off my 78, but when I pulled an abandoned s-10 with no tires on it around a sand lot @ the beach the front tires threw sand all up in the door jambs and I suspect when I go hit some mud it will do the same. Maybe even soak my butt inside. I will be replaceing mine with some aluminum ones 1 day. I have a metal break and will make some I am thinking. Foir a whole lot less than new ones.
