Your taste is bad and you should feel bad.

Worry about yourself there, champ. Eh

I'm a function over form guy. Ugly, so what. Does not do what it's supposed to? Kick it to the curb...

Mine look way better and work rad. Form and function here.

I should have mentioned that aside from how they look, I AM concerned about function with the large gap between them and the fender flares. Since I’m outside the cancellation window, (and still waiting on my Bronco), I will likely put them on as a stop-gap until something better comes along.

I think this thread should be changed to "Weathertech Mud Flaps Leaving Soon."

I think a Weathertech rep should come read this thread, then go chew out the design team and put a new one on the job. There are individuals on this board from the USA to China who are doing better design work with, gas station mud flaps, 3D printers and cardboard.

I actually gave Weathertech the link to this thread, encouraging to read it. And take our feedback into consideration. Response: Thank you we always take our Customers feedback seriously.

Uh-huh.

Ordered… scrolled… cancelled

I got a couple cheap pairs on the way from Amazon anyway. I’ll make those work for the time being.

I ordered some just for the heck of it. I'll withhold final judgment until I see them on my WT with tube steps. If they look like crap, I'll ditch them. At least there's no drilling involved.

I'll post pics for those interested.

Thanks. Pretty is as pretty does. Not worried about looks so much as function. a pic of what happens with the gap after driving through mud would be great!!!

I doubt Weathertech even makes them themselves. Wouldn't surprise me if they were contracted out. Weathertech and Husky both do that.

I would have given them a chance but when I saw the massive gap between where the flap stops and the flare starts... What's the point of putting these on? there will be a ton of junk that gets through that wide open window.

however, I'm curious to see how they look with tube steps. Please post photos when you get them installed

Is the solution to flip the OEM steps??(Driver > Passenger Passenger > Driver) I measured and it should create the space needed to install front flaps. May experiment this weekend unless someone knows it doesn't solve problem for some reason.

I just re-positioned my side step yesterday! It's so easy! Search for user "Skip," who posted pics! All you need is a 9mm drill bit (9 bucks) and a rivet nut tool (37 bucks) and a little elbow grease. I moved my steps back a little over 2 inches back, which leaves plenty of room for my front Ford OEM mud flaps! Remove the side step's six mounting screws, push the side steps back, with a marker, mark the mounting holes from the mounting bracket to the bottom of the side steps. Then drill the six holes, and with the rivet nut tool, insert and set the rivet nuts to the bottom of the side steps (first time ever using this tool...and it went well). Repeat for the other side. The only thing that bothers me a little bit is that the rear end of the side step is close to the rear tire (1.75 inches)! I will try to post pics later...I have to go out and snow blow the drive....a bunch of snow fell yesterday! The photo attached was before I moved the side step back!

I just cant understand why we cant get a flap that is made like the non-Sasquatch flare but extended out to the edge of the Sasquatch flare. The inner/flat portion of the flap could be molded to accommodate a tube step/RR (like weather tech has done) but the outer edge of the flap like this:

It can mount the same way as the non-sasquatch flap but adjust where the clips connect to the flare.... Seems like a simple solution.

or make one for non-tube/RR but with Sasquatch and have people move their steps back or trim their RR's. Then Ford could shorten the tube steps and RR's to keep them out of the wheel arches for future.

Here are pics of the Weathertech mudflaps...for the WildTrak with tube steps. Pic shows rails, tho. I ordered a set. Not sure if i will like them.

It sure looks like they are on wrong. The top in the picture looks like it belongs on the right side. looks like it's molded for the fender flare there. Looks like they are on sideways.
