Mud flaps

[britej]

This is my first post. I just purchased a 2025 2500 zr2. Looking to get some Dura flap mudflaps, and was wondering what the consensus is on the length. For those of you who have them, what length did you get? They have a short, standard, and long. I live on a gravel road, so I was wanting to protect the side of my truck and obviously whatever I’m trailering. This thing throws rock like crazy.

I don’t want them to hang down too far, but then I don’t want to lose protection either. I wonder if the standard length gives adequate protection. It is bone stock.

I also have a 2009 Chevrolet Duramax that I purchased brand new. It is has been A very good truck, it has about 245,000 miles on it and the only thing I’ve really done is put front bearings in it. I hope this new truck will be the same

This truck sits high just the same as my 6 inch lifted Duramax. You'll need at least the standard ones, but may need the long. Might want to get one of each and make a gametime decision and return the others.

Can't guarantee anything with reliability nowadays. There is plenty to be desired in terms of quality control on these new rigs for the money you spend. Hopefully it'll be good, but you aren't gonna see the durability of the 2005-2018 rigs.

You might want to just call him. Super nice guy. When I got my HD they didn't officially have them out for a ZR2 yet. I placed an order and just put in the notes it was for a ZR2. He ended up calling me and going over everything with me. Actually gave me a discount also if I would send him some photo's for him to use. Mine are 10" long on the front and 13" long on the rear. I'm on stock tires and rims. They have worked great. I'm on gravel all the time and I pull several trailers. Everything from a fiberglass ski boat to a camper. I haven't had any rock chips show up on anything.

Thank you for the advice. I did order the standards... It hurts my stomach when I get off the gravel and it sounds like microwave popcorn, but with a metal sound...

Yeah the stock tires are brutal when it comes to rocks. I don't normally run mud flaps, But this truck throws rocks constantly. I pretty much constantly have rocks stuck in my treads. You can still hear them hitting the flaps lol. But it's much quieter and you won't be slinging rocks at anything behind you.
