Splash guards

Can someone take a picture of the rear splash guards. Where they mount and how the fit is against the wheel well. Tia

Re: Splash guards

When you say "splash guards", I think of 3 different things you could mean. Are you asking about those in the pictures below?
#1- right.
#2- left.

Re: Splash guards

Yes thank you! May I get one more pic of the outer wheel well where the splash guards meet.

Re: Splash guards

This is the best I can find. My telephoto lens isn't capable of providing a sharp picture at a distance of 2000 miles. The lip of the shield overlaps the lip of the bed and the bottom of the shield overlaps and bolts to the lower bed side lip.

Re: Splash guards

It appears your truck may be a step side. If so, things may be different.

Re: Splash guards

FirstOwner is that OEM steel? They look pretty nice.

Here are my repops that were cut up and welded back together to fit. Even with the rework they dont look to fit as nice as the others.

Re: Splash guards

If I recall correctly, they are repops. I'll check in a couple weeks. I know the originals were in pretty good shape. I don't know why I would have bought new. Pretty dumb answer, huh?

Re: Splash guards

Just an FYI - I had the same fitment issues as sprint. I have a complete repop bed assembly (steel floor). I took the skirts off my factory longbed to see if they fit any better but they didn't. That leads me to believe that the repop skirts are okay, but the fitment issue must come from the bedsides and bed floor (or cross sills) on these repops.

What brand is your bed? I have a Woodall and the rectory shields don’t fit for squat.

I can't remember, but likely Trimark or some other generic supplier.
