American vs Canadian flaps

I needed Canadian flaps last week during the cold spell.

Has anyone here tried the rekgen mudflaps?

I have RokBlokz splash guard and I just noticed i have chips on bed side by the cab. Time for PPF that area up to the gas cap and maybe invest in rock sliders as well.

I’ll send a pic - ignore the ugly seam - my guy is going to fix that and it’s a long story

Thanks @Franko Manini for pulling and getting part numbers! PK389-35R50-P1 fit my TH well, extending out as far as the fender flares.

is PK389-35R50-P1 for all four mudflaps?

Yes.

Me too, not happy.

I put +25 wheels on my truck yesterday. Hopefully the RokBlok Rally mudflaps and the rough country rpt2 running boards that I installed at the same time prevent rock chips.

Should be good! I’ve got ARK mud flaps, almost identical to RB’s? And Sliders haven’t noticed any new chips with +25 offset wheels.

Better mudflaps definitely helped my truck, but what really saves the sides are the RCI sliders.

Unless you have a slider or step down there I think you will always have a chip problem

i just put on side steps and ARK mud flaps. Hopefully I won’t have anymore rock chips

Agreed, the CR sliders with kick out and tread plate have stopped my chip issue. That's with 275 70r18 tires

New mudflaps on without incident. Much better than stock lol. Came with screws I didn’t need, just reused the hardware from the original mudflaps.

These inexpensive guards (PK389-35R50-P1) rub when installed on my (stock tires) Trailhunter
Not badly, just in full turn and the truck is leaning a certain way.
Very annoying sound. .

For reference, I have Toyota mudlaps and TH rock rails and don’t have hardly any chips so far

Rails might help

Where do you get the TH truck rails?

I have full size ARK mud flaps and still get rock chips there I’m hoping rock sliders will stop this? They shipped and will be here early next week, also will be applying Xpel PPF after I get the touch up painting done.

Similar here...just got word our WD sliders are on the way. The Trailhunter tubes don't deflect much. I'm optimistic that, like the solid sliders did on our Wrangler, the new sliders will serve as an effective deflector. We'll see.

PPF is coming in a few months. Between the two...
