Thread: Mud Flaps

Point this out to the dealer as a design problem. You might get lucky & have them replaced under warranty.

Then, remove them before you go off road as it's a common problem when they scrape.

As Scouse advises, I have removed mine (permanently?).

Best Wishes,

This is how I solved mine:

I have a semi broken one now, waiting for it to fall off before doing a fix.

I had one damaged on the Simpson Desert trip, managed to make a repair that is not too noticeable, but I will make some replacements for up and coming trips.

After 3 broken sets, mine are now the same as CarverD3's. Same idea after breaking the last set in the Simpson.
Need someone to design a flexible set.

You can either stick a bit of rubber imediately behind the wheel, which will not be stiff enough to keep the stoes away from your trailer.
Or if do what I did, using the LR originals as a base, they are in the right possition and the LR originals keep the rubber well positioned so it doesn't flap.
Some work involved though.

here's my repair job
