Mabett Mud Flap Real Unpaid Review

I've tried the Mabbet/IAG/other-generic-names mudfaps. They're marketed under different monikers.

They're easy enough to install, but a review of this and other threads shows that there are a few tricks to doing it right. It's definitely wise to buy replacement push-plugs, as re-using the OEMs is chancy: they don't go in tight. Also, I found the rear fender-piece difficult to get in place: alligning the bolt with the reception (female) clip is hard to get straight, and get be very frustrating.

That said, they look good and are fine for daily and moderate off-road driving. However, they are not suitable for rock-crawling! I put a set on and snapped off two. Mabbet (very good customer service there!) sent me replacements. I have a complete set, with new hardware and fittings, which I'll ship to anybody for $100. Just message me.

Good on Mabett for stepping up and replacing the rusting screws with a non-rust replacement. That is a company that stands behind their product.
I also run their mud flaps, and the pricing on them is bang on when compared to some of the other completely overpriced competition.

Likewise i installed the same flaps, but from 21OFFROAD.
It took me a bit of fiddling to get them all installed, but they are solid and well made. The brackets are stout.

Agreed! It's just that they're rigid, and any rigid mudflap is going to be exposed to damage when rockcrawling. So, per my post above, for pavement and unmaintained road, and maybe medium overlanding, they're excellent. I ran an intermediate trail in western Mass, twice, and broke a mudflap each time.
My point is, determine what the most aggressive off-roading you're likely to do, and factor that in. I hate spending hundreds for mere mudflaps, but I'll have to pony up (pun intended) and get the RockBlokz. As you probably know, one can detach the lower portion for rockcrawling.

I put some Sticker Fab versions on my Badlands (they're all pretty much the same). My 1st time wheeling the truck with them on, I broke the front right one, bottom 1/3 went bye bye. Did it when I went over a fairly moderate ledge rock. If you plan on wheeling your truck to any degree...don't bother with these. I'm considering using the them as a template for some 1/4" sheet rubber...something with a good combination of flexibility and stiffness...if that makes sense.
