At first I thought I needed the extra long, but the kind folks there recommended the stock length and they are correct. If you belong to any of the Ford Forms and cand provide the form name and your user name you can use the coupon " member " for 10" off. Just ask the nice folks when you call.
Why did I choose DuraFlap? Back in 2004 when I got my last truck they were recommended by the folks on a Ford Diesel form. They were not drill-less then. but went on easy and held up very well. I think the new drill-less ones are good too. The down side is the instructions could be improved, so watch as many YouTube videos that you can. It took 3 hours for the first front mud flap and 15 minutes for the second. The trick is to get one of the center fender bolts started then rotate the flap and secondary clips in place. As I have the optional inner wheel well covers I had to do some shimming to get the upper clips in place. My new trim tool kit came in handy again. Having someone with skinny hands would also help.
Second tip - before installing get some larger fender washers as the bolts tend to pull into the adjustment slots. Tomorrow I will be added larger stainless steel washers I have (just need to find them) when I make the final adjustments
OK the pictures
Passenger side rear
There is good clearance form the exhaust
Front view. The middle bolt on the fender lip is pulling slightly into the elongated mounting hole.
