Do you mean the front fender covers, or the rear-wheel liners?

I asked because the '05 has the front-fender liners. The only reason to take them out is cost; Ford is always looking for places to pinch a few pennies. Keep an eye on eBay if you want a set for your truck- you'll see them come up there for about half the price you'd pay at a Ford dealer parts department.

They didn't come on my 2004 F350 either. I'd definitely recommend buying some and installing them yourself...especially if you live in the salt zone like I do. I can't imagine having all that salt spray going directly up into the engine compartment.
