Mud Flaps Needed - recommendations?

[briarcutter]

I'm looking to add front mud flaps to my HE ... I went to Amazon to order some from Mabett (since i have other Mabett products) BUT the site had a warning "frequently returned item due to compatibility issues"

What other brands have yall installed with success ?

thanks in advance

I have the Mabett front flaps with no complaints. I had the Ford mud flaps but the won’t work with the factory running boards. The Mabetts work well.

I just bolted on the IAG fronts this morning! Bought off Amazon. Perfect fit for my Heritage. No drill, no fuss, very easy to fit.

I had initially bought the full set of Weathertecs because of their reputation and no drill claim. Well the no drill claim is a bold faced lie, you have to drill into the rear plastic bumper guard to fit them and really uncomfortable/fiddly to attach fasteners. They look good once on, but seem very rigid so may crack if dragged off roading. I did not even bother w the front set as the fit is awful, as if made for a different vehicle and they just modified the bolt holes.

if I could do it again, I would 100% buy the IAG front and rears. Here from this morning:

I've always had good luck with WeatherTech flaps on all my vehicles.

have you put them on your Bronco? If so, please show pics of the fronts. And were you able to attach w/o drilling? Because even though they say ‘no drilling’ for the Bronco, the instructions show you have to drill.

I just ordered a set of Weather Tech for my Bronco. I've had them on three Explorers and they were great.

Why I returned my front Weathertecs. This pic shows them lined up to the attachment points. Note the gap between the fender flare and the guard. Note the mystery bolt hole that goes nowhere.
these are garbage.

The Ford factory mud flaps require drilling on front and back. You have to drill the front fender flare to install. The rear drill into the bumper

Pardon the dirt - It's winter here in upstate NY.

That weathertech design is obviously different than the one they just shipped me. Mine is for the Sasquatch package. But the same question is asked - why the huge gap between the top of the mudguard and the plastic flare?
The Mabett and IAG guards follow the line of the flare ensuring maximum protection.

I had the Rokblokz mud flaps installed on my Badlands so I can't comment on ease of installation. They're removable, which is a plus on the trail where mudflaps may be damaged.

Thanks @adampdx! @briarcutter, we’ve done several kits for the H.E. Recommend our new Premium line. Lots of reviews and pics on Etsy https://broflaps.etsy.com/ and we have a website now with even more pics at broflaps.com BTW, I recently took my Badlands up the full Rocky Gap trail near Red Rock and tried to break the flaps. The flaps survived and only my skid plates and wheel rims took abuse. We’re also a sponsor on 6G. Good luck!

I've had the Rokblokz flaps since I got the Bronco. They're pretty spendy but I think they're some of the best looking and they certainly do the job. "Original" size, (non-XL) and regular length since I don't have Sasquatch - XL width is recommended for Sasquatch package including Heritage.

I have the Mabetts on my HE. IAG are the same as well.
