Bronco Rear Gator Back Flaps

These were easier, in my opinion, to install then the front.  Even though there are two holes to drill, the template and backing plate make it very easy.  It lines itself up.  Very heavy duty flaps.  These will last the 10-15 years I will have this Bronco.  Great product and engineering using the existing mount points on the truck.  Installed two flaps very quickly.  Great product.

Bronco Rear Mud Flap

This was the rear set of flaps for a 2023 Bronco Wildtrack.  I first checked the inventory of the parts shipped and was sent only 12 of the 14 nylon washers, so one side did not get a washer before and after the flap as illustrated in the instructions.  While things happen for the price paid for these, the QA/QC should have been in place to confirm 14 vs 12 washers thus four stars.  Combining the video and the instructions to execute the installation it was a relatively smooth process.  I used the top two holes installed at the factory that are holding the tab in place.  I had to elongate the hole on the flap on the passenger side to allow the flap to level.  The heavy duty construction of the flaps and the weight of the design should do a good job of knocking down and rocks off the tires and save a windshield of the people behind.  The flaps themselves blend into the body lines and color scheme of the vehicle.  Overall I am glad that I purchased these flaps vs the ones made in China.

Flaps well built, hardware OK, missing parts unacceptable for this high priced item. The passenger side rear mudflap was missing its plastic retainer clip. See photo. Modified product to make it function without missing parts. Directions not quite up to the task as they listed 143 ft lbs to tighten factory tow hook bolts.  The factory bolts stripped out at 130 ft lbs. Checked the other side for factory install torque and they were only at 90 ft lbs. See photo.

Nice fit, perfect to keep the rocks down behind me

++ Packaging:  very well packed and clear instructions

+Assembly:  take the tires off and this assembly is a breeze.  These were much easier to assemble than the fronts and I was able to make parallel with the wheels easily.  Tip 1, if you have the plastic bumper don’t over tighten the self threading screws.  This will strip the plastic in a heartbeat.

Fitment:  Overall, pretty happy with how they fit.  Wish the backing plate worked with the plastic bumper screws so I could torque the screws down.  Also not sure 143 ft-lb for tow hooks is too high as I felt that I fatigued the threads past 140 ft-lb.  Tip 2, make sure to put blue loctite on those M12 bolts.
