Heat Shield for Rock Tamers Mud Flaps for Truck with Rear Exiting Exhaust

Question

Question:

I have a newer GMC 1500 AT4 with the rear exhaust, do they make Rock Tamers to handle the rear exhaust? Will the heat shields and exhaust outlets they offer work for this pickup?

For vehicles that have rear existing exhaust Rock Tamers has a heat shield available with the part # RT76FR which you could use with the Rock Tamers for 2 inch hitches part # ERT00108 and you'd be set. This would protect the mudflaps from melting due to heat.

Hey Rick, yes you can just swap out the shank that you have now for one that is designed for a 2-1/2 inch hitch like the Blue Ox part #BXW4028. You probably already know this but you'll most likely need different spring bar tension on the new…

Hey Mark, the only real downside to an offset ball like the Gen-Y part #GY43XR is going to be that it costs more typically and it would take up more room when stored compared to a non-offset ball like the #C38CR. The handling and weight carrying…

Hey Jerry, GM moved the placement of their puck systems starting with 2020 models so you are correct that the pucks would have the hitch not sit directly over the axle. GM did the math and made sure that this placement wouldn't adversely affect…
