Mud Flaps

[Norm C]

I ripped one of my rear mud flaps off a couple of weeks ago while off roading. Toyota will sell me another one at the discount price of $110. They must be kidding. It will probably get ripped off again anyway with some of the places I drive.

I'm looking at making my own. Anyone done this and able to offer some tried and proven ideas.

Hi Norm, I ripped one off within the first week of taking the Hilux off-road.

I straight away went down to Supercrap(cheap) and bought some h/duty 4x4 rubber mud flaps, cut them to shape and drilled some holes & used existing screws etc. Not a problem since!

Norm, I havent done it on this Hilux, but on my last one I cut them out from some "thin" conveyor rubber. I made them a bit wider and they worked great. Fixed with bigger screws into the existing holes. I also put them in front of the rear tyre to stop the rear door and side step getting a hammering. I have done this on my new one (see profile pics).

Bigger tyres fitted so went to Mr Toyota today quoted $412 for four sr5 mudflap so said don't worry(did order cup holder for the LHS though)
