Larger Mudflaps for LC100

Andrew,
been there, done that :-) I would suggest you go to Clark Rubber and buy soem heavy duty rubber and cutout your own. This way if you rip one off or damage one you simply make another. Additionally you can cut tehm out any shape you want.

Don't use insertion rubber as the mud guard will come off when you back over a rock. That stuff is very strong. I suggest that you get some 4.5mm neoprene and sew them to your existing mud flaps with cable ties. Just drill a few holes a fit the ties. When you back over a bundi the new flap comes off , not the original.

Andrew,
Do you know anyone that works in mining or on a process production line? Conveyor rubber is the good gear if you can get it for free. Most of it has a fabric cross ply not ounlike a tyre side wall so its pretty strong gear.

Thanks Matt and MUZBRY - all good input.

The guards on all the cars are already pretty bashed about just in front of the door on both sides - this seems particularly prone on 100 series.

Cheers
Andrew.

A decent set of steps may be an answer to your problem.

Andrew,
As Matt said use conveyor belt rubber, about 1/2 inch thick and easy to drill, just cut with a stanley knife. I did my rears to protect the trailer last weeekend.
Tough and look good you can paint them too if you like I did on my 80 series dual cab and the paint was still good 2 years later.

Conveyer belt rubber from a local quarry is normally free if you ask nicely. Cut to what ever shape you want but suggest attaching with large mudflap washers & tieing back to the side step with a short length of chain otherwise they tend to just rip off when you back up in sand or mud.
