Mud flaps?

[ArcadeTracks]

I'm thinking mud flaps (mudflaps?) will be one of the first things I install on my Rubicon. It's going to be an everyday driver with off-roading when I can -- probably increasing in frequency as I learn what I'm doing out there.
I was planning to get a cheap (<$25) set for front and rear. Front to protect my doors, and rear to protect other drivers. (I've head some windshields crack rather easily with hits even from small rocks. )
If they break when I go off-roading, I'll just replace them. It doesn't seem like they are likely to damage the actual vehicle + I've read they are appreciated by other drivers in some off-road situations.

Does that sound about right?

(Certainly not a big important question/topic, and I've already found some info on it. But I'm still waiting for my Jeep to arrive, so this is how I choose to spend my time...)

I use rokblokz and they are great for keeping mud and snow off the handles. They are also quick release and after ripping one off while on the trail I have started removing them for off road use.

Lol I just got my set of Rokblokz xl in yesterday. The pile just keeps getting bigger.

I went the cheap rout myself but couldn't find anything that fit the Rubi rock rails or the taller fenders. If you're up for some cutting and running a couple screws into the fenders the Quadratec flaps are working well for me. But as HK1s mentioned, they do exist.

After hearing rocks constantly 'ping' off my doors, I immediately ordered a set of front standard Rokblokz flaps. Still hear stones occasionally hitting the door, rear fender and side window, but not nearly as many. Seems to be mostly smaller rocks that still sneak by versus everything before. Still kinda wonder if I should've gone with the wider XL flaps, but at the time, I just wasn't crazy about how they looked on stock Rubicon wheels/tires (which I plan on keeping for a while).

Definitely recommending getting something, at least for the fronts and if you're like me and travel through gravel lots or driveways every day, take it slow and easy for the first mile back on paved roads.

I went XL and I question if I’d rather have had the smaller ones…

Go with the Rokblox. They'll be there until you do something stupid like not removing them off road and rip them off by wedging them between a rock and your tire. Outside of that they're indestructible.

RokBlokz are the way to go. They run in tandem with the OEM rubicon rock rails(pre-cut) or you can get non cut. I also have Ace engineered rails that work with these mud flaps “and” the oem ruby rails, double bonus!

I liked the front Rokblokz XLs so much I ordered the rears as well. Good company, easy install, and quality part.

Rokblokz XL if you plan on going with bigger/more offset tires.

I also added fender spats (extensions) that are part of the Xtreme Recon package, and they line up nicely.

I went with the wethertech thought the look and fitment was much better for my 2022 rubicon , Front and rear !

Weathertech is the way to go. Compare the fit and looks to the others…

Most times you get what you pay for. Splurge and do as others have said, RokBlokz. They are already set up for a cut out to fit Rubi rails. If you've taken the rails off you just don't cut them. Theres no drilling, they go on quick and are easily removed with a thumb screw when you want to remove them for off road.

I prefer the look of the wethertech as well ??

Consider the XR flare extensions, very easy add.
