I saw a set of CAT mud flaps at a local heavy-equipment dealer. Most CAT dealers of these places have a small store where this sort of thing is sold.

Another possibilty is a heavy equipment rental center. A trip to one of those also lets you look at some real heavy-duty toys. Caution - you might be tempted to rent a backhoe and trailer just to see how well you can tow them!

CAT mud flaps??

Heck lets get the REAL thing and people will be standing in line at Ford dealerships to place an order for a CAT powered Super Duty..Ford HAS to realize the Power and prestige that the Cat name carries with it!! It would be HUGE!! Are you listening Ford?? Navistar has dropped this ball one to many times..Its time for a fresh start..And if Ford doesnt do this? I am betting Toyota might take a stab at it...Wouldnt that suck to see an American icon powered Jap having a run away sales hit???? Guys.. Make yourself known! Ford KNOWS how to build trucks..but they need lessons in what will sell out here.... Food for thought.

You can get a CAT diesel in a Ford truck, but you'd have to step up to a 650 or 750. Our road mechanics have them in their trucks, but I can't remember if they offer them in a 650 or until the 750's

NewHolland, Navistar wanted to do many different things to the engine, but the FORD engineers said NO! would cost too much, and I've talked to several engineers from navistar, they were just as frustrated as you! so many of the issues are strictly a money issue with ford, not with Navistar, I live in the city where they built the motor for FORD, thats how I was able to kibitz with those nice folks.

Try your local truck stop for mud flaps. They should have all the brands and labels.

Ebay is another good source. A skull and crossbone set caught my eye....

Cat Mud Flaps

If you are just looking for SRW mud flaps, Farm and Fleet carries them. They just say CAT on them. Unfortunetly Farm and Fleet is only here in the midwest. I know that they carry them in their stores because I bought a set for my front tires. I was not able to find them on their website for sale though. DRW mud flaps are another story. Hard to find those. I am still looking for them.
