Do these stop gravel from hotting the body, frame and doors from the front wheels?

I currently have the Weathertech mudflaps and they are useless at stopping gravel and dirt being flicked up.

Yes, for sure the Premium XL Flaps. I test them rigorously:). Not a single chip on mine and a thousand + of my miles are off-road.

I just went to your Etsy site...you don't sell the Sasquatch premium short rears just by themselves?
No, but we’re easy. If you want to buy some fronts on Etsy and tell us when you order that you want rears, we’ll send you those instead of the fronts (with the rear hardware).

How do they attach, can you please define the “plastic rivets” in more detail please?

I’ve been contemplating front flaps that I can modify by trimming and then connecting them to my sliders. Just to help close the gap between the fender flare and slider. Cheers.

@Ramble_Offroad I just put a set on my 22 BL non sas they are just like the plastic clips that hold the plastic on a ATV/Dirt bike.

Just got shorts for the front on my Sas. Can't wait to try them out.

@aermtr I have now broken or cracked 3 out of my 4 Mabett flaps so it is time for a replacement. Bro-Flaps look like a good alternative. Questions:

1. There is some badge near the bottom of the long flaps in the video. I don't see this in the pictures on Etsy. What is this and is it an option? I think it improves the appearance.
2. It looks the bottom corners are slightly rounded, but it still seems a little squared off. In my opinion, the flaps would have a better aesthetic appearance if the curve were larger. Is that something you have considered?
3. I have a Badlands SAS, stock tires. Do these ever rub with that configuration? The Mabett's didn't rub under normal driving conditions, but they did rub in a specific situation when off-roading. Specifically, when reversing up a steep hill with steering fully turned, like you might need to do when negotiating a tight downhill switchback. If they do rub, it doesn't look like it would be as big of a problem since they are relatively smooth and would slide over the tire. The Mabetts make a loud racket that is very concerning if you don't know what is causing it.
4. I've been happy with the length of the Mabetts. It looks like your shorts are a little shorter than the Mabetts and the longs are longer, but it is hard to tell from the pictures. Do you know how they compare? You give info on how far the flaps are from the ground, but that will be affected by the load and other factors. It might be better to provide info on how far they extend below the rock rails, body, or some other point on the Bronco.

Thanks.

@Ramble_Offroad. These are the plastic rivets. We include the tools and the rivets so you won’t need to remove the wheel. I’ll include a video too, albeit with our originals and not the Premium flaps but same install process.

@ramble_offroad here is the install video. Original flaps. We haven’t done any for the Premium ones yet, but they install the same.

Hi @DaveH, on #1, the add on emblem, I added that and bought from 4X4 Graphics (they also sell on Etsy.
https://www.etsy.com/shop/4x4GraphicsLLC

On #2 interesting you mention that. We haven’t released yet but more rounded corners coming. We’ll probably call them “Blackline”. I can get you some if you’d like and you don’t mind a wait of a week or so.

#3. Zero rub, ever with 35’s.

#4. I believe the X - longs are 8.5 - 9 inches to the ground at the front and 12 inches rear. I’ll confirm if different tomorrow from mine although it’s laden with winch and other stuff on front. I’ll send a photo of the future Blackline flap design tomorrow as well.

@ramble_offroad. Note that the rears use the rivets (steel rear bumper models) but the fronts use blackened stainless hardware into existing Ford holes. No drill.
