Key Features & Benefits
Mudflaps, pretty simply, they catch road debris – rocks, mud, slush, water, you name it. They’re usually made of rubber or a tough plastic material designed to take a beating. They really act like a shield in front of your tires, stopping stuff from getting kicked up. Some are just basic flat pieces, others have a bit of a pattern or design to help break up spray.
They mount behind your tires, usually pretty low to the ground. They’re not something that affects how the vehicle runs mechanically. Instead, they protect the lower body of your car or truck – things like the rocker panels, the paint, even the undercarriage. You’ll notice if you drive without them on a gravel road or during a snowstorm – the side of your vehicle gets covered quickly.
Symptoms, Risks & Replacements
It’s mostly about protection and keeping things clean. They save your paint job from chips and scratches from stones. They help keep the vehicles behind you from getting blasted with water and grime, which is just a courteous thing to do. And frankly, they can help protect more expensive components under the vehicle from getting damaged by larger debris. If you do a lot of driving on dirt roads, gravel, or in areas with a lot of road salt, they’re definitely a good investment. You can find a ton of different styles and sizes, even for specific makes and models. Fixparts Online has a good selection if you’re looking to browse.
