Land Rovers don’t look right without mud flaps (in my opinion) and as Genuine Land Rover mud flaps for Series vehicles are still available (for the rear at least), lets fit some. I have a pair for the rear and a pair for the front 🙂
Rear Mud Flaps
Genuine Land Rover rear mud flaps
The underside of the rear cross member will need to be drilled to accept the new fixings
Marked up and 8mm holes drilled
A convenient kit of fixings is supplied
Sorry theres a brace in middle of the picture. Mud flap fitted, as viewed from inside
… and repeat on the starboard side…
Rear mud flaps fitted
Front Mud Flaps
This pair and from Britpart and one of the few components from this manufacturer (thankfully)
First of all, the holes where the bracket is fixed through the bulkhead mount are far to small and need to be drilled out to 8mm (how can a manufacturer get that wrong)
Second job is to finish Britparts excellent workmanship off. Shouldn’t there be a washer on that rivet?
Like a fool, I drilled the wrong rivet out. 2 new fixings added to improve the finished item 🙂
Easy enough to fit between the chassis and cill fixings though
The mud-flaps look great along with that awesome galvanised chassis! Nice.
