Rear Mud Flaps added to My FJ

With the addition of Bushwacker fender flares the Toyota FJ Cruiser stock mud flaps are removed. On past trips the front of my trailer has gotten plastered with mud and with no flaps the problem is going to be even worse. I decided it was time to fab some rear mud flaps for the FJ Cruiser.

The materials I used are 1.5 in wide 1/8″ flat steel ad 12″ wide x 1/8″ polyurethane sheets.

The flaps are cut to be 13″ long. I was able to fabricate a bracket that uses the two existing bolts.

Installed the flaps are about 3″ behind the rear wheel and extend down about 10″.

With these installed there should be mush less mud and stones hitting the trailer.
