Installation
Front Flap Installation: The front mud flaps attach to the lip of the wheel well using custom-fit mounting brackets (GB759524) and existing factory fasteners. The no body drilling installation is simple, requiring only basic tools. The brackets are designed to protect the truck's paint and aluminum body from damage. For vehicles with the Lariat protection package, two small cuts may be required to relieve pressure on the bracket pressing against the inner liner.
Rear Flap Installation: The rear mud flaps are installed with custom-fit mounting brackets (GB759543) and factory mounting points. These brackets also feature no body drilling, preserving the structural integrity of your truck. If the truck has the Lariat protection package, minor modifications may be necessary for proper fitment. The brackets provide additional stability, minimizing unwanted flapping during rough driving conditions.
