Gatorback is a premium mud flap built to a higher standard than typical aftermarket flaps, and it shows the moment you pick one up. Each flap is cut from heavy 1/2" thick premium rubber, mounted with custom fit brackets and hardware made for your exact truck, and backed by a lifetime warranty on the rubber. Each flap weighs 5 lbs, so no rocks or debris get past it. The result is a flap that hangs straight, stays put at highway speed, and keeps doing its job for the life of your truck.
These 12" wide flaps protect your truck from rocks, mud, gravel, snow, slush and road debris, so you will see your truck staying cleaner longer, less mess on your step bars, and fewer rock chips in the paint. The officially licensed Ranger logo and black wrap background create a standout look that is both rugged and refined. Gatorback flaps are some of the highest quality, heaviest duty mud guards in the industry, and they are proudly made in Canada. If you are looking for mud flaps you buy once and never think about again, this is them.

Installation
Installation is simple with custom fit hardware and brackets, and no body drilling is required. The flaps use the factory screws already in place for a secure, straightforward installation that takes only about 5 minutes per flap with basic tools, and they fit flush in the wheel wells for a factory-like finish.

Care & Maintenance
- Clean the rubber regularly with a mild soap and water solution to remove dirt, mud and grime. Regular cleaning helps keep the rubber flexible and extends the life of the flaps.

- Clean the black wrap plates with a soft cloth and a stainless steel cleaner, or a mild soap and water solution, to maintain their polished appearance. For tougher stains or minor surface corrosion, use a stainless steel cleaner made for automotive use. Avoid abrasive materials that could scratch the surface or damage the finish, and dry the plates thoroughly to prevent water spots.
- Check the mounting hardware periodically and retighten if needed, especially after off-road or rough-road driving.
