Rokblokz Mudflaps, good cold day project.

[zonzin]

Too cold outside today to do much but heat up the garage and take care of a couple mods. Installed heavy duty rear hatch shocks, installed light sensor to auto adjust instrument brightness, and the best mod, installed a set of Rokblokz mudflaps. OEM flaps were just to narrow and did not do a very good job of , flappin'.
The installation of all items was straight forward and easy. The mudflaps are well made, great fitment, and easy to install. Pretty happy with them and at 149$ a good, inexpensive mod.

I'm almost ready to get those. Which width did you go with?

 

[97BlackAckCL]

They look awesome, I'd love to see a side by side of the stocks with these

I went with the standard width which is just about perfect for my 255's + Spidertrax 1".
If you have wider tires you may want to go with the plus size.

Do these hang lower than the stock ones? I asked rockblokz directly and they somehow had no idea.

Yes they do, especially the front ones. Compare my before and after pics above.

Didnt even think to look that closely. Derp.

But anyways, that makes me smile. Going to order them right meow.

The real question is do you notice any less spray on the rear window when driving in the rain/wet roads/snow?

Any spray on the rear window is noticeable, doesn't take much to reduce visibility. So is there less with thes? Can't tell, see above.

I just installed these as well last month. It's tough to tell in this photo, but the regulars work well with 285s. There's a big difference in terms of spray on the side. I'm not sure there's a difference compared to the OEMs in terms of hatch spray.

They do hang lower than the OEMs enough that I'll probably take them off when it's time to hit the trails in the summer.

Also - zero rub with the 285s, which is what drew me to them in the first place (OEM fronts were removed with the lift/new wheels).

 

[rayofsi]

did all the holes line up on your rockblokz? for my front , the bottom hole is off by a inch or 2, but i dont know if something was previously removed on mine. i have aftermarket flares and bmc done, so i'm not sure if something was removed that might have shifted the hole.

Yep,, like a champ.

thanks let me jack up my car and show what i have. maybe it screws into a piece of the fender they removed when i installed bigger flares.

Thanks for the pics, exactly what I was looking for!

It seems stupid, but I'm fighting with my front mudflaps since adding Spidertrax 1.25" wheel spacers, running 17" FJ Cruiser 8-spokes with 255/75/17 Duratracs. Was able to move the front fender liners ahead and out of the way, but even with the inner mudflap panels completely removed I'm still getting rubbing in reverse with the wheel turned...so every time you back out of the driveway or a parking spot, very annoying.

Have you replaced your UCA's? What is your caster at? If you have it between 3.5 and 4 you should have no rubbing.

Stock UCA's as I've only got a 1" leveling spacer on the front, I had it aligned after installing the spacer lift but I'm not sure what the castor setting was.

You may want to take it back and have them re-align for at least 3.5 cater , both sides. Iffy weather or not you can get that with stock UCA's.
