Small Mud Flaps - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have a newly finished set of custom side pipes on my '69 and noticed today that road dirt might shorten the life of the chrome 90* bends that are directly behind the front wheels. Wondering if anyone has come across a small set of flaps that do not hang too low and might even be chromed steel instead of flaps.

When I was a kid all the auto parts stores had these. Course that was quite awhile ago, but I would think they still have em.

when you changed from 3/4 ton to 1/2ton was there any problems when registering

very easy to take a sheet of aluminum and make a set easy to polish to nice shiny finish too

No not really, 1/2 to 3/4 was not even questioned, the biggest problem was due to the fact that the p.o. had a camper on it and had auto plates on it. Once I took the shell off I had to register it as a commercial vehicle again, hence the letter number combo on my black and yellow plates.

I would suggest making your own thatd probably be cheapest and best quality.
