Just like to ask those of you running these mud flaps how you mounted yours. I'm ok with welding them on, but maybe bolting is the way. Looked at instructions, and it looks like the kit only comes with tek screws. What's your experience.

I've decided to use the two left over bolts from the stock bumper that way there's no drilling or welding, not that anyone really cares anyway.LOL

this is where I put the mounts for mud guards using the two bolts from stock rear bumper. next photo shows complete, should keep highway patrol off my back, although really shows tires sticking out past fenders (2.5") now. Catch 22. :doh:

Still looks like it should be effective. I bought a set too. Waiting to install them once the rest of my build is done. I work at a sand and gravel plant. I'm worried about throwing stones on cars behind me literally every day when I leave from work. I hope these save a few windshields.

Will they cover a 35/12.5/17 with 3.5" of backspace?

Yes. They will cover up to a 13.50 wide tire on 3.5" of back spacing. I found the arms to be long and I ended up trimming mine and drilling new holes for the pins.
