Video Transcript for Review of Access Mud Flaps - Custom Fit - A98VA

Hi everyone. Steve here with etrailer.com. Let's take a look at our Access Rockstar Commercial Grade Mudflap. It's a full width mudflap. Folks, this is a custom fit application, so make sure you're checking our fit guide here at etrailer.com. On the homepage where it says my vehicle information, enter things like your make and model, sub-model, bed lengths, those kind of things, cab style.

Be sure you're getting the right parts the first time. Keep in mind, sometimes these videos could be outdated and it could potentially fit newer years and models and makes than what's shown in this video. Now again folks, these are gonna be a full width mudflap. I don't really have the space in this studio here to put this fully together and those kind of things. And sometimes there's some modifications that may need to be made to the material, but on this particular one, I don't think there is any from what I saw in the instructions, but don't quote me on that.

The mudflap will hang at the perfect length according to your vehicle's stock ride level and give you a custom fit from the factory look. and it's gonna sit and fit the contour of your bumper as well. So there's a lot of big parts in this kit. You have the heat shield here, of course. That, from seeing the instructions, will get mounted behind the mudflap, obviously, where the exhaust is coming out, I believe on the passenger side of this particular truck, if I was reading that right.

And that just kind of keeps the heat away from the mudflap. Again, you're gonna have two of these long aluminum frame bars here and they kind of have a trapezoid shape. And basically both of these would be buttoned up against each other, side by side, and then you have installation brackets and bars included with the kit, and those are going to help connect those together, along with all the hardware. There's a bunch of pins in here and everything. And again, I just didn't wanna lose it, so I left it all in the bag that it came in.

But you get all the nuts, bolts, pins, attachments for that setup. I'm gonna set this outta the way here real quick. That way I can hold up one of these mudflaps for you. So, these are really beefy. They are pretty much a half inch thick, from what I measured earlier, and they should have all the holes pre-stamped, pre-drilled. You have some square ones here, some slots and everything, for again, those brackets I was just holding up a second ago. And everything, again, is flexible, even at temperatures as low as negative 40 degrees Fahrenheit, so you can be sure that it's gonna work through all seasons. Now this is a smooth rubber construction, so that will reduce flapping and decrease ice and mud buildup as well. And it really is an easy installation. Just take your time. The mounting brackets use existing holes and hardware, like I was just pointing out, on the mudflap itself. You can purchase separately some mirrored trim plates to maybe give it a more finished look. Add some pizazz to it, if you will. But again, that's sold separately. So again, you have two of these. They're like a mirrored look to each other. And again, there are some cutout holes. Let me zoom back in here and see if I can give you a better shot of some of those cutouts. So it's kinda hard to see, but you can kinda see those two square ones there. And then you have a bunch of round ones. And then again, that half inch thickness. So very nice, very beefy. These are gonna get the job done and they will protect whatever you're towing from dirt, debris, mud kicking up, those kind of things. It's a great addition to any truck. This is the Access Rockstar Commercial Grade Mudflap. I'm Steven, thanks for watching.
