At a glance

Overall sentiment is strongly positive: buyers consistently describe Gatorback/SharpTruck mud flaps as premium, heavy‑duty, great-looking, and highly effective at stopping rocks/mud/snow from hitting paint, steps, and trailers. The main reservations are the high price and occasional installation/fitment or hardware/packaging issues, which are often mitigated by responsive customer service and strong warranty support.

What Customers Liked

  • Thick, heavy rubber with substantial weight plates; feels “OTR/semi-truck grade,” doesn’t flap at highway speeds, flexible in cold weather, holds up through winters, gravel roads, mud, and years of use; many repeat buyers across multiple trucks.
  • Significantly reduces rock chips, road debris, mud/salt spray on paint, rocker panels, running boards/power steps, cameras, and keeps trailers/5th wheels/RVs cleaner and protected; coverage often better than OEM or plastic splash guards.
  • Looks “sharp,” classy, and truck-specific; logo/plate options (Z71, AT4X, Ford, Ram, Duramax, flags, black/satin/gunmetal/chrome) get compliments and help the truck stand out; finishing caps appreciated.
  • Many report perfect/vehicle-specific fit with factory-hole mounting, adjustable in/out positioning, good clearance with stock tires, and compatibility with certain trims/fender flares when configured correctly.
  • Generally described as straightforward with the right tools; helpful YouTube videos; bracket kits (especially rear/dually) add stability and make alignment easier; ability to install without removing wheels on some vehicles.
  • Frequent praise for fast shipping, responsive support, quick exchanges for wrong parts, replacement parts/plates/flaps shipped rapidly, and hassle-free warranty (including tears/rips or shipping damage).
  • Replaceable plates; removable lower section on some models for off-road clearance; ability to adjust flap stick-out; some like drilling only into plastic liner (not body).

Things to Consider

  • Most common complaint; many call them expensive/overpriced (often $600–$1000+), sometimes compounded by needing separate bracket kits/plates; some say alternatives may be “good enough” for less.
  • Mixed experiences: some installs are quick, others take hours—especially rear/dually, with wheel-well liners, rock rails/steps, or limited access; right-angle drill and/or removing rear wheels often recommended; alignment can be finicky.
  • Paper instructions sometimes vague, lacking steps, inconsistent with videos, or confusing (hardware ID, left/right orientation, templates, washer placement); requests for better labeling, templates, and model-specific videos.
  • Occasional reports of holes not lining up, needing to drill/elongate slots, bend/trim brackets, trim liners/trim pieces, or create homemade brackets; some rubbing with oversized tires/offset wheels; a few cases of poor fit on specific trims/years.
  • Multiple reviewers note drilling is still required (usually into plastic liner or flap), so ‘no-drill’ feels misleading in some kits.
  • Some dislike plastic clips/nut inserts pulling out/stripping, mixed metric/SAE hardware, bolt length issues, flimsy/galvanized or plastic brackets at high price, silver hardware visible (wish black), occasional missing/mismatched hardware or parts.
  • Some flaps/plates arrived scuffed/scratched or boxes damaged; brackets loosening in transit; a few wrong items shipped or missing pieces (spacers/washers/clips), though support often resolves quickly.
  • Some note low ground clearance depending on model/height; concerns about snagging in deep snow, tall grass, or off-road obstacles; some wish flaps were longer/shorter depending on use.
  • Plate finish can streak/stain (e.g., gunmetal), color/gloss differs from expectations, logos not level in a few cases, and some wish flaps came pre-slotted/pre-drilled for easier install.

I cannot say enough good things about this company. Had trouble with my original purchase, called and talked to Matt. No questioning no hesitation said we’ll make it right and I’ll next day air the parts to you. Not only did he next day air them, he sent me a whole new mid flap kit! That’s how business should be ran! I can name multiple outlets that need a lesson from these guys. If you want outstanding customer service buy from these guys. If you want no service choose from many of the big box places. Thanks again for getting me fixed up guys. I will definitely recommend and be back! Installed gatorbacks on a 22 Chevy 2500.
Impressive look, quality product, and great service

Not only are the mud-flaps awesome but these plates really seal the deal! I had such a hard time choosing which plates to get, but I don’t think I could have gone wrong with any of them. We had a mishap on our part, not SharpTrucks, and they were so understanding and made the entire process easy! I can’t say thank you enough to SharpTruck for the great service and quality products! I will gladly ship here even if a competitor is cheaper because they care for their customers and about the products they sell.

The Truck Hardware Gatorback series mud flaps are the industry's highest quality heavy duty mud guards! The rugged design and quality finish of these mud flaps make the perfect complement to your truck. The flaps install inside the wheel well, while also replacing the factory splash guards that came from the factory. The finishing caps will give the truck a unique from the factory look. Featuring a 1/2" thick rubber flap, these mud flaps are sure to impress while they protect your investment.

This logo is exclusive to SharpTruck and is on the stainless-steel plate. The stainless-steel plate measures 10 1/4" x 5". You will appreciate the attention to detail in these flaps.

Installation is made simple featuring no body drilling to install using factory existing screws. Installation takes about 15 mins per flap, and you can use tools you have at home. The Gatorbacks install flush to the inside of the wheel well over top of the existing factory mud flaps, so they work with step bars, power boards or side steps. The mudflaps also feature a lifetime warranty on the rubber portion of the flap. If the flap comes off the truck or is damaged to due to normal wear and tear, let us know and we will send you a replacement piece of rubber at no charge.
